I've made black bean soup a few different times, each time tweaking it to adjust to my taste. This is really good and is really good for you! Ingredients:
3 (15 ounce) cans black beans (2 drained and rinsed) |
1 medium onion (chopped) |
1 1/2 cups broth (i use chicken, but you can use any kind) |
1 1/2 cups water |
1 1/2 teaspoons cumin |
1 (10 ounce) can rotel, tomatoes and chilies |
1 (10 ounce) can diced tomatoes |
1/2 teaspoon dried cilantro (or fresh-i recommend 1/4 cup) |
sour cream (optional) |
tortilla chips (optional) |
Directions:
1. Place onion, water, broth and cumin in a stock pot and bring to a boil. Reduce to medium heat.
2. When onions are soft, place beans and rotel in the stock pot. Simmer for 20 minutes.
3. Blend with a hand blender. ( I don't like thin soup, so I only do this for 20-30 seconds)
4. Add diced tomatoes and cilantro. Simmer for 10-15 more minutes.
5. Serve topped with a bit of sour cream and crushed tortilla chips.
