A friend brought this recipe to a gathering, and it's been a hit with my family ever since! I use brown rice for more fiber and whole-grain goodness.
Ingredients:
1 medium sweet red pepper, chopped
2 celery ribs, chopped
1 small onion, chopped
1 tablespoon canola oil
2 cans (15 ounces each) black beans, rinsed and drained
1 can (14-1/2 ounces) reduced-sodium chicken broth
1 can (14-1/2 ounces) diced tomatoes, undrained
1 can (4 ounces) chopped green chilies
3/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1-1/2 cups cooked minuteĀ® brown rice
6 tablespoons reduced-fat sour cream
Directions:
1. In a large nonstick saucepan, saute the pepper, celery and onion in oil until tender. Add the beans, broth, tomatoes, chilies and cumin. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 30 minutes or until thickened.
2. Divide rice among six soup bowls; top with soup and sour cream. Yield: 6 servings.
