Our Favorite Black Bean Soup image

Another family favorite recipe that has been scratched on a piece of paper without knowing where it came from. It's a delicious soup and though we've tried many black bean soups on Zaar and elsewhere and really liked them, this one is our favorite.

Time 55m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/2 cups broth, I usually use a vegan chicken broth (Can be vegetable, chicken, or beef)
1 1/2 cups water
1 small onion, chopped
3 (15 ounce) cans black beans
1 cup salsa
1 -2 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon cilantro (dried or fresh)
0.5 (15 ounce) can corn
salt, to taste
1 teaspoon chili powder (optional)
sour cream (optional)
green onion, diced (optional)

Steps:

  • Mash one of the cans of beans with the juice with a potato masher. Drain and rinse the other two cans of beans and set these whole beans aside.
  • Add salsa, garlic powder, chili powder, salt, and cumin to the one can of beans that were mashed, then set aside.
  • In a pot bring the broth, water, and onion to a boil.
  • Simmer until the onions are clear. Then add the corn and all of the beans to the pot (both the mashed and the ones not mashed).
  • Stir well and then simmer at a low heat for about a half hour.
  • Can serve topped with sour cream and diced green onions.
