Recipe: Spicy Black Bean Soup

6 Comment(s) | Posted |

I found this recipe on Epicurious and then added my own spin to create this delicious black bean soup.  It may not look like much, but the flavors were spot on.  I doubled the recipe so I could continue to enjoy it for lunch the next day, and then coupled it with cheddar cornbread muffins.

In addition to the original recipe, I added:

1 15 ounce can of diced tomatoes

1 large white onion

6 cloves of garlic (we love garlic)

1 cup of chopped fresh cilantro

A few dashes of Habanero pepper powder

I sautéed the onion and garlic for a few minutes in Extra Virgin Olive Oil before throwing them into the soup.

    1. Is this a picture of your actual soup?

    2. Would Loose Meat be a good addition to this recipe?

    1. Yes this is a picture of the actual soup we ate.

    2. You really need to experience loose meat on its own before you start throwing it into recipes.
