Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

02

Step

Cut 2 tortillas in half, then into 1/8-inch strips. Toss with avocado oil in a bowl. Spread in a single layer on a baking sheet.

03

Step

Bake until crisp and light brown, about 15 minutes. Remove and set aside.

04

Step

Place guajillo chile in a saucepan with water to cover; bring to a boil. Remove from heat and soak until soft, about 10 minutes. Drain.

05

Step

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add onion and garlic; sauté until transparent, about 3 minutes. Tear the remaining tortilla into pieces and add to the skillet. Cook until soft, about 3 minutes. Add tomatoes; cook and stir until tender, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool, about 5 minutes.

06

Step

Transfer tomato-tortilla mixture to a blender. Add soaked guajillo chile and vegetable stock. Blend until smooth. Pour into a saucepan and season with salt. For a finer soup, strain it. Bring to a boil and simmer until flavors meld, about 5 minutes.

07

Step

Garnish with baked tortilla strips and avocado slices.

For a richer flavor, roast the tomatoes and onion before blending.
Add a squeeze of lime juice at the end for extra brightness.
Feel free to add other toppings like cilantro, vegan sour cream, or a drizzle of hot sauce.

    The tortilla strips were a perfect crispy addition. I might try air frying them next time.

    This soup is so flavorful and easy to make! I added a can of black beans for extra protein.

    I found it a bit too spicy for my taste, so I used half a chile. It was perfect!

    I've made this soup several times now, and it's always a hit! I sometimes add a touch of smoked paprika for extra flavor.
