    Mexican Beef Soup in Tortilla Bowls


    Source of Recipe


    Internet

    List of Ingredients




    1 1/2 pounds lean ground beef
    1 large onion, cut lengthwise in half and cut crosswise into thin slices
    1 tablespoon ground cumin
    1/4 teaspoon pepper
    2 cans (10-1/2 ounces each) beef consomme
    1 can (15-1/4 ounces) whole kernel corn, drained
    1 can (10 ounces) diced tomatoes with green chilies, undrained
    1 cup water
    6 medium (8 inches) flour tortillas*
    2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro

    Recipe



    Heat Dutch oven or large saucepan over medium heat until hot. Add ground beef and onion; brown 4 to 5 minutes, breaking beef up into 3/4-inch crumbles. Pour off drippings. Season beef with cumin and pepper.

    Stir consomme, corn, tomatoes and water into beef. Bring to a boil; reduce heat to low. Simmer, uncovered, 10 minutes.

    Meanwhile gently press tortillas into 6 individual microwave-safe (2-cup) soup bowls. Microwave, 3 bowls at a time, on HIGH 5 to 6 minutes or until tortillas are slightly crisp, rotating and rearranging cups halfway.

    Stir cilantro into soup; spoon soup into tortilla bowls. Garnish as desired; serve immediately.

    *Tortilla chips may be substituted for tortilla bowls. Spoon soup into 4 individual soup bowls; serve with tortilla chips.

    Servings: 6
