Equipment

Ingredients

for the soup

  • 2 tbsp avocado oil
  • 3 cloves garlic chopped
  • 1 jalapeno with seeds chopped
  • 1 medium onion chopped
  • 15 ounces green chili enchilada sauce can I like Hatch brand
  • 1 can black beans rinsed & drained
  • 1 cup organic frozen corn rinsed & drained
  • 3 cups vegetable stock
  • 2 tsp taco seasoning
  • 1/2 cup tortilla chips I like Trader Joe's gluten-free chips

for the toppings

  • scallions chopped
  • fresh cilantro chopped
  • jalapenos sliced
  • 1/2 cup sharp cheddar cheese grated, 2 tbsp per serving
  • squeeze of lime juice

Instructions

Prep

  • Chop onions, garlic, and jalapeno. Set aside.
  • Drain and rinse a can of black beans. Drain and rinse frozen corn - just rinse under warm water. Open up a can of Green Chili Enchilada Sauce.

Cook

  • Click Saute mode on the Instant Pot, let it heat up. Then add the garlic and jalapeno. Saute for a minute.
  • Now add the onions. Saute for a couple of minutes.
  • Add the green enchilada sauce. Stir.
  • Then add the vegetable broth.
  • Add the corn and black beans.
  • Add taco seasoning. Stir.
  • Hit Cancel on the Instant Pot, close it, and cook the soup on High Pressure for 5 minutes. Let the soup naturally release all the way.

Toppings

  • In the meantime, get your toppings ready. Chop the scallions and cilantro. Slice your jalapeno and lime.
  • Grate some sharp cheddar cheese.
  • Blend Soup
  • Once the soup is done, this is what you should have.
  • Add tortilla chips - I used Trader Joe's Organic Quinoa Chips - they're so good.
  • Blend the soup using a hand blender.
  • Garnish with toppings - scallions, cilantro, jalapeno, cheese, and a squeeze of lime juice. Enjoy!
