Amazing Vegetable Avocado Soup

Posted on by Judith Scharman

If you’re busy and enjoy high-quality, delicious food, you’ll want to try this month’s meal hack. Buy fresh vegetable soup in the refrigerated section of Costco or a grocery store. I use CedarLane Organic Chopped Vegetable & Barley Soup that I purchase from Costco. Add a couple of spoonfuls of your favorite salsa to each bowl of soup. If you end up using a sweeter fruit salsa like mango salsa, add a couple of squeezes of fresh lime.

Heat soup by the bowl in the microwave or heat the whole container of soup on the stove. Just add fresh avocado chunks to each bowl of hot soup and serve. You’ll be surprised at how well a little salsa and avocado can enhance the flavor of the vegetable soup. You can have a delicious, hearty soup that is quick, fun and feels like you have been cooking all day!

15-Minute Roasted Mexican Soup

I can't get enough of this 15-minute soup. It tastes like it been roasting for hours and it has, but by Trader Joe's and not by you! It’s quick and sooo good. You might be able to find these roasted veggies at other stores, but you will for sure find all the ingredients at Trader Joe's. It's a soup-er healthy, zippy, meal hack. This soup can be left chunky or blended smooth, either way it taste soup-perb. The blended version is perfect for those picky eaters who don't appreciate onions, bell peppers or black beans. Shhhh, they'll never know if you don't tell them. Top it with cheese, cilantro, avocados and/or tortilla chips or don’t add a thing to it. It’s a flexible meal using frozen ingredients that you can keep on hand and made on the spot.
