Mexican Tomato-Lime Soup

This is my very favorite, and it takes about 15 minutes to put together and another 5-10 to heat thoroughly. It's soooooooo good! And it's loaded in Vitamin C, so it's a great soup if you feel a cold coming on.

Mexican Tomato Lime Soup

1 large can tomato juice (64 oz)
1 large can diced tomatoes (28 oz)
2 limes
3-4 cloves garlic – minced
2 tsp. cumin
Fresh cilantro
Olive oil

Heat a tablespoon or so of olive oil in a pot. Add minced garlic and heat, but don’t brown. Add cumin. Pour in tomato juice and diced tomatoes (with the juice). Add juice of 2 limes. Heat through then add chopped fresh cilantro to taste.

Serve over crushed tortilla chips and top with grated cheese.
