This recipe is so easy, I'm mad at myself for not thinking of it years ago.
Ingredients
- Chunky Salsa. I use Safeway Select Southwest Salsa, Hot. The more vegetables in the salsa, the better. As an example, the Safeway salsa has tomatoes, Jalapeno Peppers, Green Chili Peppers, Red Bell Peppers, Green Bell Peppers, Black Beans, Corn, Onions, and Garlic, besides the usual herbs and spices like Cilantro, Basil and Oregano.
- Vegetable Juice Cocktail, like V8© , though there are usually store or generic brands that I find very comparable
Preparation
- Combine the Salsa and the Vegetable Juice in a 1:5 ratio (adjust the ratio to taste).
- To serve cold, the soup should be thoroughly chilled in the refrigerator. To serve hot ... do I really need to explain this?
- Can be garnished with sour cream, avocado slices, cucumber slices, tortilla chips, crackers, shredded cheese, boiled egg slices or your favorite whatever—or no garnish at all.
