So apparently Anna Maria is a big soup gal and is hosting a give away in exchange for recipes.
Mind you I am not a cook, but this is one of the few recipes I have in my tiny arsenal of food...
Here's my only soup recipe....
Simple Black Bean Soup (fancy name, I know):
one can whole black beans
one can refried black beans
one can of corn
one can of rotel tomatoes
milk
salt
- Dump all the cans into one pot, juice and all.
- Stir until the ingredients are mixed - refried beans should be smoothed out and not clumped together.
- Add a little milk to smooth out the mix more (it should be a very dark purple color).
- Add salt to your liking
Cook over medium flame in a large pot until ingredients are thoroughly cooked. (you should bring the mix to a boil at least once, but the mix should mostly simmer)
Serve with tortillas and a sprinkle of grated cheese on top
Freeze remaining in separate serving containers appropriate for the microwave. I usually get about 4 large sized bowls with this recipe. I like to make a big batch, freeze it and take to work for lunch.
Since it is wide open to additions, I'll sometimes put corn tortillas in the soup or other vegetables.
Perfect recipe for non-foody types like me. I would love to post some photos of a gorgeous pot of purple soup, but alas - I have not made this recipe in YEARS.
