    This is a good basic recipe. I like to add other things to spice it up and give it more of a healthy punch. I saute up about 1/2 c. each of onion, celery and carrots in a bit of butter. Then I add 1 tbsp of cumin. I blend it & add another can of beans to give it a few chunks. Serve w/ sour cream. - 2/2/11

    Swapped vegetable broth for chicken broth to align with my vegan life style. I'm a garlic lover so I added about a teaspoon of minced garlic and two tsp cumin. So good, and so quick to make. - 3/11/12

    I love this soup! I add cooked chicken and a little cilantro and dont blend it. I've also cooked it down some and used it as a dip. It's awesome no matter how we fix it!! - 1/12/11

    Loved it! I made it with dry black beans, and it took 30 minutes to cook them in pressure cooker (I used about 1.5 cups dry beans + 4 cups water + 1 chicken bouillon cube). After the beans were cooked, I added some chili pepper paste, the salsa and 2 cloves of garlic, then puréed in Cuisinart. YUM! - 9/1/10
