This soup is made in quite thesame fashion as the chicken tortilla soup recipe. One thing to be aware of is that cooking the beans within the same broth does cause the broth to darken. It still tastes amazing, but if you want a redder broth, you may need to cook the black beans separately. Me, I don't care what it looks like. I want it to be authentic, and easy. This is easy.

There’s really only one manual step, but this one is an important one. It’s essential to sauté the vegetables until they thicken. This will take at most 10 minutes but will add a world of flavor to your soup.

So whether you're looking for a vegetarian soup dish or just a delicious dish in general, you're sure to enjoy thisVegetarian Tortilla Soup. It's a quick and easy Instant Pot recipe that's both flavorful and healthy!

Ingredients You'll Need

• Tomatoes- Gives the traditional red colored broth that you expect in a tortilla soup
• Onion
• Garlic
• Chipotle chili in adobe sauce- Just one tablespoon from the can, no peppers.
• Jalapeño Peppers
• Chopped Cilantro- if you don't have cilantro on hand, you can also use parsley.
• Kosher Salt
• Oil
• Dried black beans- these will need to be soaked for one hour in hot water before you prepare your soup.
• Water- mixed with all of the other flavorful ingredients, this becomes the broth of the soup.
• Corn tortillas- these are optional in this recipe. They are used to thicken the broth a little bit, but it is just as tasty without them.
• Frozen Corn Kernels- I prefer frozen because they maintain their texture better after being cooked under pressure.

How To Make Vegetarian Tortilla Soup

1. Blend together onion, tomatoes, garlic, chipotle chili, jalapeno, salt, and cilantro.
2. Turn your Instant Pot on to Sauté and add the oil.
3. Once the oil is hot, pour in the blended vegetables and stir. Keep stirring for 10 minutes until the sauce begins to thicken.
4. Add water. If you're using the corn tortillas to thicken, add them.
5. Add in beans and set your Instant Pot to manual. Let it release pressure naturally when finished.
6. Add in frozen corn and stir to let it heat through.
7. Serve, garnish, and enjoy!
