La Fiesta Soup

"This is a great vegetarian soup that all can enjoy. Be sure not to heat the soup once the avocado is added as the heat can spoil the taste somewhat."

directions

  • Soak pinto and kidney beans in 4 cups water overnight or at least for 6 hours.
  • You could use canned beans I should think, but I haven't so you will have to use accordingly.
  • This recipe is with bulk beans.
  • Bring to a boil the beans and 8 cups of water.
  • Reduce heat and simmer, covered for about 15 minutes.
  • Add rice, onion, green pepper, chili powder and oregano, and bring to a second boil.
  • Reduce heat and simmer for about 40 minutes or until the rice and beans are tender.
  • Be sure to check the kidney beans at this step, because they tend to take longer.
  • Add blended tomatoes, garlic, parsley, and butter, and simmer about 15 minutes or until the flavors are blended.
  • Turn burner to lowest heat Add green onions and corn chips.
  • In blender, blend together sour cream, chees, avocado and enough of the hot soup so that mixture can blend.
  • Blend until smooth.
  • Remove soup from heat, stir in blended mixture.
  • Season to taste.
  • Serve, topped with additional sliced green onions, if desired.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I live in Las Vegas. I was lucky enough to run into Recipezaar around Nov. 2000 and got hooked quickly. I am a cookbook collector and have been collecting recipes for as long as I can remember. My DH had to build in shelves for all my cookbooks! I like to dabble with OAMC and for a few years hosted the Budget/OAMC forum with some great people over there. Even though I don't work in the forum any longer I've set up a lot of cookbooks for the purpose of OAMC and stretching food that might be helpful. Please feel free to check them out! I go on food jags and cooking jags! Please come say hi to me and chat on facebook. I currently host a blog for saving money through finding deals and coupons if you are interested. Most of the time I try to cook and have a good dinner on the table but I'll be honest enough to say there is still fast food occasionally in the budget! I have had such wonderful support here whenever I need it. Thank you all for being here! Just a quick note on how I rate recipes: ? 5 stars - This recipe is perfect. (My DH is truly a critic and doesn't give 5's unless it's amazing) I would recommend it to others and would definitely make again. ? 4 stars - This recipe was good but I would change something in it next time. ? 3 stars - This is a recipe I would not make again but it was OK ? 2 stars - This recipe I would not make again and we didn't like it at all ? 1 star - This recipes did not work out/taste was unappealing and wouldn't make again
