SPICY HEALTHY TACO BEAN SOUP



Spicy Healthy Taco Bean Soup image

This is a great, healthy recipe that I originally got from a weight watchers meeting, but that I didn't actually try myself until a coworker made it for a faculty lunch. It's amazing how the refried beans thicken the soup and give it more body than the broth alone. It's super tasty, but quite spicy. I cut the spice by topping individual servings with fat free sour cream and shredded cheese. You could also replace the spicy diced tomatoes with an additional can of regular tomatoes if you don't like so much heat. Another way to reduce the heat would be to add an additional can of chicken broth and more beans, either more black beans or a can of kidney beans. Don't like it meatless? Stir in some browned ground beef or turkey, or add some cubed or shredded cooked chicken. Note: After reorganizing my pantry, I realized I have two similar types of tomatoes, and that I have used Mexican style diced tomatoes the last couple of times I made this, which likely made this more spicy than the rotel style tomatoes would have.

Provided by SrtaMaestra

Categories     Black Beans

Time 30m

Yield 10 cups

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 large onion
1 (1 1/4 ounce) packet taco seasoning
1 (15 ounce) can whole kernel corn, drained
1 (15 ounce) can reduced-sodium chicken broth
1 (15 ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 (15 ounce) can great northern beans, rinsed and drained
1 (16 ounce) can fat-free refried beans
1 (15 ounce) can spicy diced tomatoes (like rotel)
1 (14 ounce) can diced tomatoes

Steps:

  • Slice or dice the onion and sauté in a stock pot until soft (in cooking spray, a tablespoon of olive oil, or a little of the chicken broth).
  • Add remaining ingredients and simmer 15-20 minutes.
  • Serve with fat free sour cream and low-fat shredded cheese, if desired. If you like cilantro, chop a little and throw some on top of the soup. Also tasty (though not as healthy) topped with a handful of Fritos.
  • Great with a piece of hearty corn bread and fresh fruit.
  • This recipe can also be made in a crock pot. Sauté onions first, combine everything in a crockpot, and cook on low 5-6 hours.
  • Enjoy!

SPICY SAUSAGE, BEAN / LENTIL, AND TOMATO SOUP



SPICY SAUSAGE, BEAN / LENTIL, AND TOMATO SOUP image

Categories     Bean

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 tsp. + 2 tsp. olive oil (or more, depending on your pan)
1 onion, chopped
1 cup finely diced celery
1 T minced garlic (or less, but I like a lot of garlic in this)
1/2 tsp. hot red pepper flakes (more or less to taste)
1/2 tsp. dried thyme
1 tsp. dried Greek or Turkish oregano (or regular oregano will work, but don't use Mexican oregano)
1 tsp. ground fennel seed (optional, but this really adds to the flavor)
5 links (19.5 oz.) hot turkey Italian Sausage
8 cups chicken stock
3 cans petite dice tomatoes with juice (14.5 oz. can)
1 1/2 cups dried brown lentils or small beans
2 dried bay leaves
salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste
chopped fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat 2 tsp. olive oil, add chopped onion and celery and saute until it's just starting to brown, about 5 minutes. Add minced garlic and saute 1 minute more, then add red pepper flakes, dried thyme, dried oregano, and ground fennel seed and saute 1 minute more. Cook beans / lentils separately with combo of water and chicken broth. When tender add onions. Add the rest of the chicken stock, diced tomatoes and juice, and bay leaves to the soup pot. Heat soup until it's barely boiling, then reduce heat. Add 2 tsp. more olive oil to pan that had onions, squeeze turkey sausage out of casings and saute until the sausage is nicely browned, breaking it apart with a metal turner as it cooks. (You may need a bit more olive oil if you don't use a non-stick pan.) Add browned sausage to soup pot, then deglaze the pan with 2 cups of the chicken stock, scraping the browned sausage bits off the bottom of the pan, and add that to soup pot. When lentils are soft, remove about 1/3 of soup mixture and use an immersion blender, food processor, or blender to puree the mixture until it's very smooth, about 2 minutes. (Be very careful with the hot soup if you use a food processor or blender.) Taste soup, season to taste with salt and fresh ground black pepper, and serve hot, garnished with chopped parsley if desired. This soup freezes well, so you might want to make a double batch and freeze some for lunches to take to work.
