refrigerator. Serve topped with crushed tortilla chips and low-fat sour
cream, if desired.
Heat sherry in large soup pot over medium-high heat until bubbling. Add
onion and cook, stirring, 3 minutes until soft but not browned. Add
celery, bell peppers, tomatoes and corn and cook 5 minutes.
Add stock, beans, parsley, garlic, cumin and coriander and bring to boil.
