Instructions
- Blend the tomatoes, garlic, onion, bouillon, and water in a large blender on high until completely smooth.
- Heat the olive oil in a medium pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the carrots and saute for 2 minutes.
- Pour in the blended tomato mixture and cook for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Stir in the zucchini, potato, bell pepper, green beans, vegetable broth, salt, cumin, black pepper, oregano, and cilantro. Raise the heat to high and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 15 minutes until the vegetables are tender and cooked through.
- Remove and discard cilantro sprigs. Taste and season with more salt as needed.
- Serve immediately with some freshly squeezed lime juice and cotija cheese or queso fresco.
Notes
- Cut the vegetables in fairly uniform and equal sizes to ensure that they cook at the same rate.
- You can swap out most of the vegetables for whatever you have on hand, like asparagus, green or red bell pepper, corn, or even broccoli!
- Keep this soup vegetarian and vegan by using vegetable broth and bouillon, or you can substitute chicken broth and bouillon if you prefer.
