Fiesta Soup

Arriba! Arriba!

I don't even know what that means, but I do know that I say that a lot when cooking Mexican food and it makes me feel very authentic.

That phrase was belted out numerous times when putting together this lastest recipe and it's probably why it turned out so well.

Here is the recipe for a soup that is perfect for Cinqo de Mayo.

Fiesta Soup

Indredients:

1 cup rice, cooked
1 can diced tomatoes
1 can black beans, drained
1 can corn, drained
2 cups vegetable broth
1 zuchinni
1 red pepper
1 bundle of kale
3 green onions
1.5 teaspoons hot sauce
1 tablespoon lime juice

This is one of the easiest soups EVER!

Simply toss all of the ingrediants minus the kale into a large pot and set the heat to medium. Leave it for thirty minutes to an hour and right before serving, add the kale.



The bean/rice/corn combo creates a perfect protein source which makes this a go to for vegans.

I also added a handful of chopped cilantro at the same time as the kale for some extra flavor.

Happy Cinqo de Mayo hombres!
