Soup Sunday | Enchilada Soup
I dug into my 3 ring binder of recipes that I’ve been hoarding again this week. This time I found a typed page with only a recipe on it. I, for the life of me, can’t remember where I got this recipe or if it was good. I assumed it was, because I kept the recipe. We were snowed in on Thursday and a warm pot of soup on the stove sounded fabulous… so I went to work. Prep was SUPER QUICK and the soup was a HIT!
Ingredients
- 3 C. Chicken Broth (I used vegetable broth)
- 1½ C. Chopped Celery
- ½ C. Dice Onion
- 3 Cans Green Enchilada Sauce (I used mild)
- 1 15-oz Can Pumpkin
- 1 C. Frozen Corn
- 1 Can Black Beans (rinsed & drained)
- 1 Cup Chopped Chicken (I used Morningstar Farms faux Chicken)
- Tortilla Chips
Instructions
- In a large pot, bring broth to boil - add celery and onion then simmer 5-10 minutes.
- Stir in enchilada sauce and pumpkin and stir until smooth.
- Add chicken, corn and black beans.
- Serve with crushed Tortilla Chips.
I have never tried enchilada soup, but I love enchiladas so I am sure that I would enjoy it as a soup. I have been meaning to try a recipe for enchilada soup for awhile now and just have not got around to it. I have seen many recipes for enchilada soup, but I have never seen one that includes pumpkin. This soup will be a great healthy recipe to make when we start eating healthy in the New Year. Thank you for sharing!
This sounds delish! Will def have to try. Thanks for sharing.
that looks delicious… love any soup with enchildanas in it!
sounds good.. i love any type of soup with enchildanas in it
I love this soup and so does everyone else. I make it in a crock pot and it makes tons, so I freeze what we don’t eat and have a meal for later. It’s great with mexican cornbread too.
Interesting that it adds pumpkin to the soup. Could you taste it or did it just give body to the soup?
Hi Sarah,
My husband had no clue there was pumpkin in it. I think it just thickens it up a bunch. It was yummy!
This sounds so good! It is now on my list of dinners to make!
Now that sounds so good! First time I ever had Enchilada soup was a Cracker Barrel. I love it so can’t wait to make this for the family. Thanks for sharing another awesome recipe.
This looks delicious! Perfect for these winter months!
Yummmmmm!! Looks fantastic! I love going to bloggers sites and finding good recipies, although I do the same. I keep them all in the drawer and finally when I get an itch to try something new, I pull them out and pick one. I love having soup during the winter months.. Gets you warm and tastes wonderful!
Looks appetizing! Not sure I have ever heard of it before, but I bet it is really good on a cold day!
Mexican is my favorite kind of food. I love soup!!
Wow! this recipe looks delicious! I’ll try to make one of this for our media noche. Thanks for sharing! 🙂
Not my type of soup but looks so easy to make…I think it will be a good treat for my better half – he is fond of pumpkins, celery and onions – there’s no way this can go wrong, then! 🙂 Merry X-mas!
This looks really good! It actually would have been great as a Christmas eve dinner for a cold night if I had seen it earlier.
THANKS FOR THE RECIPE –I WILL TRY THIS FOR SURE……………………….
this sounds like a wonderful meal and a wonderfully sneaky way of getting fruit into my child! we both adore soup and tex-mex so this’d be a definite hit. did you try searching google to see if you could find a source? either way, thanks for sharing!!

This looks really good ! I will have to copy down the recipe and try it sometimes … I have not made homemade soup before but this looks simple enough ! Thanks for posting .
Sound interesting with the pumpkin in the soup. I wouldn’t have thought of putting pumpkin in a soup I will have to try this some time.
This sounds good. Is that three 16oz cans of enchilada sauce? Or the bigger cans?
3 – 16 oz cans 🙂
This looks so good! I love trying new recipes and I think the family will enjoy it. I had never heard of enchilada soup, but I am definitely interested. Thanks! 🙂

This sounds really good. I’m curious what the can of pumkin will taste like. I’ll have to give it a try.
This sounds good…. I will have to try it. Can you taste the pumpkin, or is just for extra fiber/thickening?
I never heard of Enchilada Soup…it looks good.
this sounds delicious! i would not have thought to put pumpkin in it but it still sounds wonderful – especially on a cold winters day!
this looks delicious! i will have to make this when the weather gets cool! perfect October supper!
Great idea! I just had an enchilada today, and it had a green chile Verde. I think adding some tomatillos to this would be a nice addition.
I’ve never seen pumpkin in enchilada soup before. I bet it adds a nice texture and sweetness.
