Ingredients

  • 2 tsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 24 ounces of premade black bean soup
  • 1 can black beans rinsed and drained
  • 1/2 cup frozen corn
  • 1 red onion diced
  • 1 red or yellow bell pepper, diced
  • Cumin, garlic powder, and cayenne to taste

Directions

  • Saute the bell pepper, onion, corn and black beans in the olive oil until cooked through (about 5-7 minutes).
  • Add in the premade black bean soup and all of your spices to taste (I probably ended up with 1/2 tsp cumin, 1/2 tsp garlic powder, and 1/8 tsp cayenne). (These spices are essential to making this soup taste great!) Bring to a boil and then simmer for 5-10 minutes.
  • Once it’s done cooking and fully heated through, ladle soup into bowls and top with your choice of ingredients!
