REFRIED BEAN SOUP



Refried Bean Soup image

This is an award winning recipe from Taste of Home, Darlene Brenden of Salem, Oregon. I will post the recipe as listed, but I did make quite a few changes. I sauted a cup of red onion in oil and then added garlic after it was translucent. Then I used homemade refried black beans and refried pinto beans my friend made for me (i.e., with lard). I had frozen some homemade black beans and used those too instead of canned. I had homemade chicken broth in the freezer and used that in place of canned. I didn't use any water--only chicken broth. For the tomatoes, I used a combination of fresh and stewed (whatever I had). I didn't use green chilies, but I used around 7 ounces of jalapenos for more bite. I ended up adding another cup or so of corn for color and flavor (no, my corn wasn't garden fresh). Plus I added cayenne pepper, cumin, chili powder, and salt because I thought it needed more flavor. I also added a bunch of fresh cilantro at the end. If you don't want your food to talk back like I do, you'll probably enjoy the recipe exactly as posted. I must confess I almost threw in a bunch of frozen hash browns at the end, but I didn't because that would really tell you I live in Idaho. Maybe next time...it'll be hash brown and refried bean soup, the Idaho way.

Time 40m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 large onion, chopped
3 -4 garlic cloves, minced
1 green bell pepper, chopped
1 1/2 cups vegetable broth
1 (14 ounce) can fire-roasted diced tomatoes
1 (15 ounce) can fat-free refried beans
1 (15 ounce) can black beans, drained
1 cup frozen corn kernels
1 teaspoon cumin

1/8-1 teaspoon dried chipotle powder (to taste)
1 teaspoon hot sauce (I use Tabasco, but whatever works)
1/2 teaspoon Mexican oregano
salt and pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Heat a large, non-stick pot and saute the onion until it begins to brown (adding a little water if needed to prevent sticking). Add the garlic and bell pepper and cook for one more minute. Add all the remaining ingredients and cook until the flavors blend, about 20-30 minutes. **This soup has a thick, chili consistency**.
  • Serving suggestion: Garnish with fresh tomato salsa, avocado, tortilla chips. Be creative!
  • Use the minimum amounts of chili powder and hot sauce for a mild dish or add more to make it as hot as you dare.
