VEGAN MEXICAN BLACK BEAN AND CABBAGE SOUP
I love the combination of cabbage and black beans. My toddler will eat any kind of bean, so this is a great way to sneak in protein and colorful veggies! Feel free to vary the vegetable combination based on what you like, or have on hand. This is a great soup for meatless Mondays. Serve topped with shredded cheddar, and warmed corn tortillas.

Steps:
- Place a large pot over medium heat, add EVOO. Add the onions, garlic and season with coriander, cumin, salt and freshly ground black pepper. Cook until softened, about 8-10 minutes.
- Add the Rotel, chicken stock corn and black beans (you can substitute chili beans if you do not like black beans) to the pot and bring to a bubble.
- While the mixture is coming to a bubble, place the tortilla chips (reserving a handful for garnish) in a food processor and pulse to grind, or in a resealable plastic bag and crush with a rolling pin or empty wine bottle. You should have about 1 cups of ground chips. Add the ground chips to the mixture and cook for 10 minutes.
- When ready to serve, add the chopped, cooked chicken to the pot along with 1/2 to 3/4 cup of cilantro and the lime juice, and cook 2-3 more minutes, until the chicken is heated through.
- To serve, ladle the tortilla chicken stew into a bowl and garnish with some of the reserved tortilla chips and some cheddar cheese.

Steps:
- 1. In a large pot add the beans, water and ham hock. Season with salt. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer and simmer 2 hours. Add more water to keep the beans covered during the cooking if needed.
- 2. Once the beans are tender remove the ham hock and cut off the meat and add the meat back to the pot. Add the remaining ingredients except cheese and sour cream.
- 3. Add another 2 cups of water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and cover and simmer 1 more hour. Watch and add more water if needed to maintain a soup consistency. Taste and adjust for salt and pepper. If not spicy enough add cayenne pepper.
- 4. Serve garnished with Monterey Jack cheese and sour cream.
Tips:
- To save time, you can use canned black beans instead of dried beans. Just be sure to drain and rinse them before adding them to the soup.
- If you don't have a blender, you can mash the beans with a potato masher or a fork until they are smooth.
- For a spicier soup, add 1-2 teaspoons of chili powder or cayenne pepper.
- If you want a thicker soup, add 1-2 tablespoons of cornstarch or flour to the soup before serving.
- Garnish the soup with sour cream, avocado, cilantro, and jalapeños before serving.
