Miracle Mexican Cabbage Tortilla Soup: Submitted by: Vickie | Date Added: 12 Jan 2016 Ingredients:

8 c veggie or chicken broth (low sodium)
2 c red salsa
2 c green salsa verde
1 head of cabbage, shredded
3 carrots, diced
1 onion, diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 bell pepper, diced
1/2 c cilantro, chopped
2 limes, juiced
1 t black pepper
1 t chili powder
1 t onion powder
1 t oregano, dried

baked tortilla chips to garnish

Cooking Instructions:

Add all ingredients to large soup pot. Bring mixture to boil. Reduce heat and simmer until veggies are tender. If desired, puree vegetable mixture for a smoother soup. (Or, cook all veggies except cabbage, puree, then add cabbage and cook until tender.)

(Cook's note: This is another version of the 80's version of the original Miracle Soup when you need a change of taste! I prefer the crunch, as opposed to pureeing all of the veggies. My recommendation is to take out several ladled scoops of veggies (including cabbage) without any broth, purée it and then add it back to the remaining soup. This gives it a thicker texture which I like, yet not totally pureed. You might also want to try the Miracle Asian Soup as well as using the basic Miracle Cabbage Soup recipe as a base for Maryland crab soup! )
