Sopa de fido is a very similar recipe other than the type of pasta that is used, the exact ingredients are used. If you do use them (they do add more flavor) you will need to cut back on or cut out the salt. But they contain MSG which is not allowed on my anti-inflammatory diet. Tomato or chicken bullion: Caldo de tomate, caldo de pollo, or a mix of the two are very common in this soup. Add some green beans, squash, or even corn.

Unless you are like my wife who prefers I never bring cilantro into the house.įor garnish: Lime wedges (or lemon juice), diced avocado, chopped cilantro, onion, or even sour cream are good choices.

Seasoning: Salt, black pepper, and cumin are my basic seasoning. Liquid: My preference is chicken broth but vegetable broth (to keep it vegetarian) or even a few cups of water work. In your blender add a cup of water, 3 or 4 Roma tomatoes, onion, and garlic, and blend until everything is liquid. Tomato sauce: I used a can of tomato sauce but if you have time make your own flavorful tomato sauce. Garlic: I used two garlic cloves that were finely minced. Onion: White onion or yellow onion both work quite well in this recipe. Oil: I am using olive oil since that is what we for almost everything. But you can experiment with different types of pasta. Pasta shells: Small shells are the classic shape of pasta so I am using dry shell pasta. But I will also discuss variations of the dish so that you can make your very own version of sopa.
