Black Bean Soup

Another one-pot wonder!  The canned black beans had jalapenos in them that gave the soup a good amount of heat.  Use a different canned bean or add avocados, cheese, and/or sour cream tone down the spiciness, if needed.

Hey, don't skimp on the bacon!  You will regret it!  LOL.


Ingredients:

• 2 cans black beans (drained)
• water (a little more than enough to cover the beans)
• 1 onion (chopped)
• 2 tsp vegetable broth powder
• 1/2 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tsp cumin
• bacon (already cooked, chopped)
• cilantro (chopped)

Directions:

1. Combine beans, water, and onion in a pot.  Bring to a boil, then lower to simmer.
2. Add broth powder, garlic powder, cumin, and bacon.  Simmer for 15 minutes.
3. Stir in cilantro.
4. Enjoy!
