THE most delicious and hearty Mexican soup you will ever eat. It is DIVINE. And I think you can get away with it in warmer weather too.
It’s no secret that I LOVE Mexican food, authentic Mexcian. Not the dripping with melted cheese and sour cream type, but rather the fresh and vibrant, brightly coloured type. This is such a dish. Salsa Verde is so fantastic to brighten up anything you put it on, so don’t be shy, make a big batch and use it on everything savoury. It will only keep a couple of days however. The soup on the other hand will not last a couple of days. This is a very hearty vegetarian meal and in fact can be vegan if you don’t serve the Queso Fresco with it.
Either way, you will love it I am sure.
