About this Recipe
By: Caitlin Greene
The key here is blending the salsa (see below!). You may have caught my stories…I’ve been working on some fall recipes and this may be my new favorite soup…it was PERFECT today since it’s chilly and rainy here. Also a good one for football season coming up. This recipe serves 3-4 so double if you want more! Hope you’re all having a fabulous week so far.
How do you make this Dairy-free Enchilada Soup?
Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium high in a medium saucepan. Once hot, add 1 medium onion-chopped, 1/2 red bell pepper-chopped, 2 cloves garlic-chopped, 2 celery ribs-chopped and 2 carrots-chopped. Sauté for about 4-5 minutes until soft.
Meanwhile, blend together the following ingredients in a high speed blender until smooth: 1.5 cups salsa, 1 cup full fat coconut milk, 1 teaspoon cumin, 12 teaspoon dried oregano, 1/2 teaspoon chipotle, 1/2 teaspoon paprika, 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon onion powder, 1/4 teaspoon salt. Add the blended mixture to the veggies along with 2 cups of broth. Cook over medium heat for 10-15 minutes.Add 1.5 cups shredded chicken (I used rotisserie, but any cooked chicken will work)—or any protein of choice such as black beans, tofu, shrimp etc. Top with avocado, jalapeños, crispy tortilla strips, chopped tomatoes, scallions and cilantro.
