Mexican Vegetable Soup with Chipotles
This Mexican vegetable soup with chipotles, or Sopa de Verduras con Chipotle, is a wonderful everyday soup that is easy, nutritious, and satisfying.
The liquid is a flavorful combination of chicken broth, fresh tomatoes, garlic, onions, chipotles, and Mexican oregano filled with mixture of vegetables.
You will love how easy the soup is to make and how fresh and delicious the soup tastes.
I understand that this soup is an everyday staple in Mexican homes and that you can buy frozen mixed vegetables especially for making this.
I used a combination of fresh and frozen vegetables to make this soup.
