This black beans soup is healthy, quick and easy to make.
You can vary the amount of vegetables according to your liking and use cooked beans. I normally cook 1 kilo of beans at a time and freeze them in bags corresponding to 1 can of store bought beans.
What You Need:
- 1 can black beans
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 small onion
- 3 pressed garlic cloves
- 1 cup chopped carrots
- 1 cup cubbed sweet potatoes
- 1 cup finely sliced spinach
- 1 can cubbed tomatoes with sauce
- 3 cups vegetable or chicken broth (more or less to your liking)
- salt and pepper to taste
Notes:
- You can use other types of beans instead of black beans.
- You can use other types of beans as well.
- You can add other vegetables such as canned corn, celery, and bell pepper.
Want to do:
Heat olive oil and saute onion and garlic
Add carrots and sweet potatoes and sauté for a couple of minutes.
Add broth, and tomato cubes.
Let it boil and then simmer for 10 minutes.
To thicken the soup and give it a nice consistency, remove 1 1/2 cups of the soup and blend well. Return it to the pan.
Add the spinach and stir until wilted.
Taste for salt and pepper and add it to our liking
Bon appetit!
