Vibrant carrot and green chili soup with rice, tangy lime juice, topped with creamy yogurt and fresh cilantro.
Ingredients:
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 large onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, chopped
  • 0.5 pound peeled baby carrots
  • 0.5 cup instant brown rice
  • 2 (14.5 ounce) cans fat-free, reduced sodium chicken broth
  • 1 cup water
  • 2 tablespoons chopped green chile peppers
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
Instructions:
  • In a large saucepan over medium heat, warm the oil. Cook onion for a few minutes, then add garlic and sauté for 1 more minute. Add carrots, rice, chicken broth, water, and salt. Bring to a boil, then simmer loosely covered for about 20 minutes until carrots are tender. Stir in green chilies and lime juice. Let it cool slightly before serving.
  • Puree the soup in batches for optimal smoothness by blending half the solids with a bit of broth until the carrots and rice are liquefied. Blend the remaining solids and stir the puree into the broth. Reheat as needed and serve warm.
