Love this recipe! I’ve made it 3 times in the last month! I double the spices and add a can of black beans for some protein….excellent!

I’m making this for my best friend who is pretty infatuated with Qdoba’s version.. and I have to say I think you got pretty darn close.. Also as an idea: when my friend orders this from Qdoba she also gets a side of the cilantro lime rice, which she then adds to the soup, and it’s really tasty! :)

[...] Bowl of Tortilla-less Soup [...]

This is great! It’s so hard to find recipes for yummy low-cal soup! I’ve been eating the pProgresso Light (only 120 cals per can), and not only is it full of sodium, you don’t get to make it from scratch in your kitchen on cold nights. Plus, this recipe is so refreshingly different from regular vegetable or minestrone soup.

By using Wolfgang Puck’s Vegetable Stock (the absolute best!) rather than chicken broth, I made this vegan. I added a little extra zucchini, added a can of diced green chiles, doubled the cumin, and substituted a little cayenne for the tobasco. Sometimes I add a big can of sliced olives (which brings up the calories).

When I want to really splurge, I think I’ll also add some black beans or kidney beans and tons of cheese, and make this into REAL tortilla soup! ;)

Thanks so much for the recipe!!

Jenn – I freeze it ALL the time! Glad you liked it!

Just had the soup! DELICIOUS. I didn’t have a mixer so it was rather “soupy.” But it was oh so good. Thanks for the recipe. I might try to freeze some of it so I can have it next week for lunch. Do you think this is ok?

Have you ever tried to make Jamaican jerk chicken soup? I have no idea what’s in it but I had some at a restaurant recently and you can really pack it with veggies like spinach and beans. Yum!

Hi,

This recipe sounds so yummy!

What size canned did you use for the chiken broth and tomatoes.

Thank you! =)

~I have so enjoyed looking through all your recipes and tips, I just wanted to thank you for doing this. I have 30lbs to loose and im hoping I can get there with your wonderful recipes! Thank you so much!

Hi Roni,

I’m just sitting back after a fantastic bowl of this soup – had to improvise a bit (a lot less red chilli pepper as opposed to a jalapeno and I used some cajun seasoning in place of the chilli powder coz its all I had) and added a can of kidney beans as I am a particular fan of those – but I gotta say it was gorgeous. Such a great idea for a soup and a for a quick dinner at the end of the day.

Just wanted to say thanks for the continued inspiration :)

OK, so I commented above, but I finally got the chance to make your soup. I added some chicken and barley to beef it up a little bit, and it was great! Thanks for the idea!

What a riot!
Glad to see your little helper is as helpful as mine. I think it’s great you let him cook with you. I do the same with my 3yo but he spit the pepper out the last time we made something with peppers. It looks delicious-we are going to get the ingredients to try it tomorrow. Thank you so much for the recipe (and the entertainment)!

Oh! and I recalculated the soup is exactly .5 so not quite 0. Sorry :~(

Thanks guys!

Rebecca –

It’s pretty similar to the fresh. If you don’t like it I’d skip it substitute parley for a milder fresh taste.

0 Points!! Oh yeah! This is also Core….even with Chicken or beans it would still be Core. You guys are too funny. I love tabasco. I think it is funny your little guy kept licking the lid. I used a recipe from the WW’s site for a southwestern soup and added it to my site with some changes. I would LOVE to see what changes you might make to it. Also I found a recipe for making a rotisserie chicken in a crockpot. It was so good I had to remind my hubby to share!!

Can’t wait to see what you do next.

Great video – very entertaining! :-)

I LOVE this soup!! Just made it for lunch and it only took me about 20 min. Sure beats canned soups. It has a nice spicy kick to it, which I really like. I love to “bulk up” on food like this – then I’m not as inclined to overeat.

Now I’m off to make your WW banana muffins – one of my absolute favorites. I love Sundays because I have extra time to cook.

Thanks, Roni.

I think I’m going to make this tomorrow, I think. It sounds great!

And I’ve said this before, but Ryan is adorable and hysterical. Great video!

i love your video clips. My son is 4 years March 1 and his name is Ryan too. I read your site every day and am inspired by you. I am starting my own site. to help me get in to the shape I wish to be. I am a WWatcher and am a follower of zone 40/30/30. Keep up the great content!!!

Looks great! I can’t believe it’s zero points. I need to buy one of those hand-mixers… It looks a lot less messy than having to transfer the soup to a food processor.

Awesome video and Ryan is ADORABLE! I think he’s going to grow up to like spicy foods by the looks of how much he like that tobasco sauce. Hahaha
