Black Bean Soup


Black Bean Soup
Thanks, Rocco DiSpirito!

Ingredients:

One 14.5 oz can black beans with liquid
2/3 c low sodium chicken broth
2/3 c store bought fresh salsa
2 teaspoons chili powder (I only used 1 tsp.)
2 TBLS reduced sugar ketchup - I used regular
3 TBLS real bacon bits, such as Hormel
Salt & Pepper

Toppings:
Greek Yogurt
1/3 c cilantro
Reduced Fat Cheese (Optional)

In a blender, blend 1/2 the can of beans & liquid, chicken broth & 1/2 of the salsa. Puree until smooth.

Add the rest of the ingredients, except toppings, bring to a boil & simmer for 9 minutes. Add salt & pepper to taste. Top with yogurt, cilantro (it says to add reduced fat cheese, too, but I didn't!)

Makes 4 servings - really 2 nice bowls @ 258 calories per larger bowl.
