This was filling and hearty on a rainy day! Very flavorful. Reserve a little bit of the chopped jalapeno and red pepper for the top. This was filling and hearty on a rainy day! Very flavorful. Reserve a little bit of the chopped jalapeno and red pepper for the top.

Ingredients

    1.5 cup Bush's, Black Beans (1 can, drained and rinsed well)
    0.5 cup hot rotel (by DUNJEN2) - Habanero kind
    40 grams Celery, raw
    60 grams Onions, raw
    2 small cloves garlic
    39 grams Jalapeno Peppers
    48 gram(s) bell pepper, red, sweet, raw
    1 tsp Knorr Vegetable Bouillon (by OBEIRN)
    1 heaping tsp. cumin
    1 small bay leaf


Directions

Dice the onion, celery, jalapeno, and red bell pepper into small pieces. Heat a medium saucepan coated with non-stick cooking spray. Add onion, reduce heat, cover and let cook 5 minutes, stiring once or twice. Then add the rest of the diced vegetables and garlic. Stir well, cover and cook another minute. Add 1 cup hot water with bouillon, Rotel tomatoes, spices (cumin, bay leaf) and the beans. Bring to boil, reduce heat and simmer 15 minutes.

Take out approximately 1/2 of the soup (more or less as you like) and in a separate container, puree it with an immersion blender. Add this back into the soup, give everything a good stir and serve.

I liked it with a little faw chopped jalapeno and red pepper on top for an extra fresh taste.
