black bean soup


This soup makes great lunch leftovers! The recipe makes 4 servings.

RECIPE
Saute 1 chopped onion, 1 tablespoon cumin, and 4 minced garlic cloves in 2 tablespoons olive oil.

Add 3 1/2 cups vegetable broth broth, 3 chopped tomatoes, one 15-ounce can black beans (I like to rinse and drain my canned black beans 1st) , 3/4 15-ounce can of corn or use fresh corn from the cob, and one 1.4-ounce can diced green chili peppers. Bring to a boil, cover, and simmer 5 minutes.

Add 1 tablespoon snipped fresh cilantro. Garnish soup with crushed tortilla chips.
