Vegetarian Tortilla Soup image

A great soup for lunch from epicurious.com. I sometimes add more spices, and sometimes I also create a garnish by frying corn tortilla strips with some non-stick cooking spray. You may top with fat-free or lowfat sour cream, and cilantro. Sometimes I also add some shredded muenster or other shreddable cheese on top. Enjoy!

This soup is a great make-ahead meal. I often make a big batch on the weekend and then eat it throughout the week.

I love the addition of the avocado and sour cream. They really add a creamy and rich flavor to the soup.

This soup is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. I always have a few extra carrots, celery, and onions in my fridge, and this soup is a perfect way to use them up.
