SOPA DE ELOTE (MEXICAN CORN SOUP)
Posted from a Sparkpeople challenge for healthy recipes. I've made this but not recently. About time since corn is in season again! From: Steven Raichlen's Healthy Latin Cooking Epazote- I haven't had this and it turned out OK. Other names for it: Pigweed, wormseed, lamb's quarters, goosefoot and Jerusalem oak. He claims there is no substitute but I'm guessing thyme or oregano would work.

Steps:
- Place a comal (Mexican griddle used for cooking tortillas) or a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pepper, onions and garlic. Roast turning occasionally, until nicely browned.
- As they brown, transfer to a plate to cool. The garlic will take 3-4 minutes and the pepper and onions will take 6-8 minutes.
- Using plastic gloves, scrape as much skin off the pepper as you can.
- Finely chop the pepper, onions and garlic.
- In a large saucepan over medium heat, combine the peppers, onions, garlic, corn 2 sprigs of epazote, the bay leaf and stock or broth. Bring to a simmer.
- Reduce the heat to medium-low and gently simmer for 8-10 minutes, or until the corn is soft. Remove and discard the bay leaf.
- Puree the soup in a blender; return it to the pan. Stir in the cilantro and cook for 1 minute. Season with salt and pepper.
- Ladle the soup into serving bowls and garnish each with a sprig or sprinkling of epazote and a sprinkling of chili powder.
- Serve each with a lime wedge for squeezing into the soup.

MEXICAN CORN SOUP
Thick, creamy, and full of flavor, this is a unique tortilla soup. There isn't much meat in it but it's thick like a chowder. The seasoning combination gives this corn soup a Southwest feel.

Steps:
- 1. Heat the oil in a 5 quart pot and saute the bell pepper and celery for about 5 minutes to soften.
- 2. Add the ground meat, jalapeno peppers, taco seasoning, garlic powder, cumin, and cinnamon, and saute until the meat is browned (about 5 more minutes).
- 3. Add the chicken broth. Cover and simmer for about 10 minutes.
- 4. Then add the creamed corn, cream of chicken soup, milk, green onion, and cilantro. Add a pinch of red pepper flakes (more if you want it spicier).
- 5. Place 6 corn tortillas in a stack and cut them into 1/2 to 1-inch squares. When the soup comes back up to a simmer add the cut-up tortillas and continue to simmer, covered until the tortillas are just about totally dissolved in the soup (about 15 minutes). Stir often to keep the soup from scorching.
- 6. Serve and enjoy with any or all of the suggested garnishes. If you want a crunchy garnish, stack the extra 5 tortillas and slice them into thin strips and fry them in hot oil for a few minutes until they are starting to turn a shade darker and are nice and crispy. Drain on paper towels. Then just add as much as you want to each serving. Of all the garnishes you will definitely want a spoon of sour cream in each serving.
