Tilapia Soup (makes 10 cups)

I know... sounds gross right?  But I promise it is SO good.  It's an invention from my brother in law, Larry, and I wrote it as he put it together!  It's a must try when you are watching your calories because it's like 70 cal per serving!!!  So good with some crackers or bread (if you are not watching your calories :)


Tilapia Soup
4-5 Tilapia fillets, seasoned with Fajita seasoning
1 large onion, chopped
6 cloves garlic, sliced
6-8 Italian sweet peppers (they look like yellow and red jalapenos)
2 tsp chicken bullion in one cup water, set aside
2 cans diced tomatoes
1 c coarsely chopped cilantro
2-3 c. water (enough to barely cover the soup)
1 small can tomato soup
1 cup cherry tomatoes
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper

Brown fish in EVOO.  Turn down heat to medium and add onions, garlic, salt, pepper and Italian peppers.  Try not to move fish around too much so it does not break up.  Cover for 3-5 minutes to cook onions, garlic and peppers. Add chicken bullion, water, tomatoes and tomato soup.  Bring to a boil. Stir to break up fish and add cilantro and cherry tomatoes and simmer for 20 minutes or until cherry tomatoes are soft. Enjoy!!!
