I love black bean soup! yum! Here is a super easy recipe. You can make it as spicy or mild as you want, depending on which salsa you use. 4 cans black beans drained 2 cups salsa 1-2 cups broth (chicken or veggie) Heat the broth and salsa for a few minutes. (I often puree my salsa so the kids don't see chunks of veggies) Add the beans. Sometimes I will puree some of the beans to thicken it up. You can add more water if desired. Cook til heated through. I also like to add browned ground beef to this. Serve with nachos or chips and guacamole. very nice!
