Ingredients

  • 3 15-oz cans black beans 425 g cans
  • 4 cups vegetable broth 946 mL
  • 2 large carrots
  • 2 Tbsp olive oil 15 mL
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 medium white onion chopped
  • 4 stalks celery chopped
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp ground black pepper
  • 2 to 4 Tbsp apple cider vinegar start with less and add more as needed, I like it with all 4 Tbsp! 30 to 60 mL
  • 3 oz udon noodles 85 g, or other thick noodles
  • To serve: diced avocado

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. The Base: In a blender, blitz to combine half of the black beans and half of the broth. Set aside.
  2. Carrot Pumpkins: Make easy carrot “pumpkins” by peeling your carrots then making two shallow slits down the length of your carrot. The depth of these slits will make the height of your stem, and the distance between them will make the width of it. Then make two more cuts, starting from the opposite edges of the carrot, perpendicular into the cuts you just made. You’ll remove a long, pie-looking slice and will be left with a long pumpkin. Cut into slices to form pumpkin slices.
  3. Flavor Base: Heat oil in a large soup pot over medium heat, then add garlic, onion, carrots, and celery. Cook until onion is soft, about 5 minutes.
  4. Make Soup: Add salt, pepper, pureed black beans, remaining black beans, remaining broth, and vinegar. Continue cooking over medium heat, bringing to a simmer for 20 minutes until slightly thickened.
  5. Noodles: Meanwhile, prepare udon noodles according to instructions on the package.
  6. Serve: Stir noodles into soup before serving. Serve hot, topped with cubes of avocado.

Notes

  • Storage: You can keep this soup in the fridge for up to 5 days in an airtight container. I wouldn't freeze it because the black beans become a bit mushy when thawed.
