Black Bean Soup

Well, it's definitely been a while since I've posted a recipe on here. I swear I've been cooking. Sadly, my first post since summer isn't even something I made. It's something my husband did, but it turned out so yummy, that I thought I'd share it on here. Here you go:

Black Bean Soup

(Serves 4)

What you'll need:
2-15 ounce cans black beans, undrained
1-16 ounce can low sodium vegetable or chicken broth
1/2 cup Salsa
1 tbsp chili powder

What you'll need to do:
-Mash one can of beans with a potato masher.
-Pour both cans into a medium saucepan and add vegetable or chicken broth, salsa, and chili powder.
Bring to a boil.

Top with shredded cheese, sour cream, onion, and/or cilantro. We topped ours with sour cream and cheese (and I added a bit more salsa to give it more of a kick)and then had corn bread on the side.

I have to admit, when Ken told me he was making this, I was a little bit apprehensive, but it turned out great and it's only 216 calories a serving!

Enjoy!
