Time 22m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 teaspoons olive oil
1 large onion, chopped (1 cup)
1 medium green bell pepper, chopped (1 cup)
2 fresh garlic cloves, minced or 2 teaspoons bottled minced garlic
2 cups homemade vegetable stock or 2 cups chicken stock
14 1/2 ounces Mexican-style tomatoes or 14 1/2 ounces diced tomatoes seasoned with jalapenos
15 ounces black beans or 1 cup homemade black beans, defrosted if frozen
15 ounces red kidney beans or 1 cup homemade red kidney beans, defrosted if frozen
16 ounces fat-free refried beans
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
black pepper

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a 4 1/2-quart dutch oven or soup pot over medium heat. Peel and coarsely chop the onion, adding it to the pot as you chop. Seed and coarsely chop the bell pepper, adding it to the pot as you chop. Raise the heat to medium-high and cook until the vegetables are tender, 2-3 minutes.
  • Add the garlic to the pot. Stir in the broth and the tomatoes with their juice. Raise the heat to high. Rinse and drain the black beans and kidney beans and add them to the soup pot. Add the refried beans and the cumin and stir well. Cover the pot and let the soup come to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the soup is heated through and the flavors have blended, 5-7 minutes. Season with black pepper and serve.
