Quick Black Bean Soup
This is one of those recipes that you can put together in 5 minutes, yet it always is a favorite with everyone. Even kids like it- and vegetable haters too, although you may want to use a bit less hot sauce for those people.
Serves: 2-4
Prep Time: 5 min
Cook Time: 10 min
Ingredients
3-15 Ounce Cans
Black beans, drained and rinsed
1 3/4 Cups
Vegetable broth
1 Cup
Fresh salsa
1/4 Tsp
Oregano
1/4 Tsp
Chili powder
1/8 Tsp
Chipotle chili powder
Several Dashes
Hot sauce
Directions
1
Reserve 1 cup of the beans in a separate bowl, place the remaining beans, the vegetable broth and the salsa in a blender jar. Process until fairly smooth, then pour into a saucepan. Mash the reserved beans slightly with a fork or bean/potato masher. Add to the saucepan with the remaining ingredients. Cook over medium heat for 10 minutes to blend flavors. Adjust seasoning to taste before serving.
Hint: This is great to make ahead of time and then heat just before serving. Make a double batch so you can enjoy a quick bowl of soup when you are hungry.
