Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a pot over medium heat. Add onion and cook 4-5 minutes until soft, then add garlic, cumin, and smoked paprika and cook 1 minute until fragrant.
  2. Add the black beans, diced tomatoes, and vegetable broth. Bring to a simmer and cook 15 minutes.
  3. For a thicker soup, blend about half the pot with an immersion blender (or mash with a spoon), then stir back together.
  4. Stir in the lime juice and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  5. Ladle into bowls and finish with cilantro, avocado, and tortilla chips.
Chef-Z tipSwap black beans for pinto or kidney beans, or add leftover rice to stretch it further. Snap your pantry and Chef-Z will adapt the pot.
