I was craving soup two nights ago (this is the time of year I really bust out the soup recipes), and black bean soup was really calling to me, but I had no recipe. Cut to me at Food City, putting items in my basket that sound like they would go well together in a soup. The result was a freakishly easy soup that was super delicious!
Black Bean & Corn Soup
1 15 oz. can black beans (drained & rinsed)
1 15 oz. can corn (drained)
1/2 cup salsa (I used medium to add a little heat, but any kind will do)
2 cups chicken broth (I used this because I had it on hand, vegetable or beef stock would do well, too!)
1 lime (I used the entire lime's worth of juice-- I'm not sure of the equivalent for bottled lime juice)
1 tablespoon ground cumin
Salt (to taste)
In a blender, add all of the ingredients except for the salt. Blend until you reach the desired consistency (I made mine slightly smooth on accident. I got overzealous with the buttons). Transfer mixture into a saucepan and heat. Add the salt to taste (it depends on the salsa used, some add a lot of salt, some have hardly any).
It was less than $5 to make, and took no more than 10 minutes. I served it with sour cream and cheese on top.
