Pureed Tortilla Soup image

This soup can either be made vegetarian or with chicken broth. It is a different twist on Mexican soup, but is easy and delicious. This doesn't make much, so you will probably need to double the recipe for company.

The soup was a little bland for my taste. I added some extra spices and it was much better.

I'm not a big fan of cilantro, so I omitted it from the recipe. The soup was still delicious.

The soup was a little too spicy for my taste, but I was able to tone it down by adding some sour cream.

The charred poblano peppers added a delicious smoky flavor to the soup.
