Vegan Mexican Soup Recipe | Gluten Free Mexican Vegetable Soup

This vegetarian and gluten-free Mexican Soup is an explosion of flavor in your mouth! It’s tangy, herby, spicy, crunchy, sour and everything that a mouth-watering soup should be.

If you follow my blog, you already know I am a great fan of Mexican Food. It’s very close to Indian food when it comes to spices and vegetables used. I love spicy and tangy food. In my soup series on Foopla, I couldn’t have not included a Mexican inspired soup. I am getting a huge response on my soup series on the blog. Until now, I have three soup recipes on the blog for you all. Creamy Spinach Soup, Tomato Pizza Soup and Broccoli Soup.

Winter call for hot soups and I take the word hot very literally. I have brought a hot and spicy soup for you on Foopla today. This is a flavor explosion waiting to happen. You must make this soup once to experience what I am taking about. It’s spicy, sour, tangy, crunchy and hot! Nothing can go wrong with this! Life is good with a bowl full of this soup, some crunchy nachos and your favorite sitcom.

This is a vegetarian version of the Mexican Chicken Stew I usually make. I never missed the chicken and this recipe is proof that vegetarian soups can be extremely delicious too. You can skip the cheese to make it into a Vegan Mexican Soup recipe. It’s gluten-free as I have used a sharp cheddar at the end which gives this soup a nice dimension. If you don’t have cheddar cheese, you can always replace it with the regular processed cheese too.

Enough about this soup already, don’t go without taking a look at my other Mexican inspired recipes like Mexican Burrito Recipe, Vegetarian Mexican Rice Recipe, Mexican Babycorn Fries
