12 Mexican Soup Recipes You'll Want To Make On Cinco (& Seis, Siete, Ocho...) De Mayo
And nueve, diez, once....

Quick! Think of your favorite soup recipes, and why are they all from Mexico? As it turns out, our love for Mexican food goes way beyond tacos, enchiladas, and elote and has us obsessed with serving up a bowl-ful of these ultra-comforting Mexican soup recipes. Spicy, bright, creamy, and fresh, these recipes range from our own takes on the classics (like pozole) as well as created some modern favorites (ahem, taco soup), and we have a sneaky feeling you'll want to keep these soups on your weeknight dinner rotation (and not just on Cinco de Mayo!).
Classic Mexican soup recipes are at the top of our list for a reason. Standbys like albondigas, black bean soup, and avocado soup are not only comforting and easy to make (yet taste super-complex), but they all get even better with plenty of crispy tortilla strips on top. Can your regular ol' chicken noodle soup do that? We think not!
Want to partake in more modern takes on the classics? We thought it was about time to take our favorite Mexican dishes and gave them the soup treatment. Enter: nacho soup, Crockpot chicken enchilada soup, and, wait for it, elote corn soup. We hope you're extra hungry, because you're gonna want to save room for second helpings of our esquites corn chowder too.
