Ingredients
- 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium yellow onion diced
- 2 celery ribs diced
- 1 medium carrot peeled and diced
- 1 red bell pepper diced
- 3 garlic cloves minced
- 2 teaspoons ground cumin
- 3/4 teaspoon dried oregano
- 3/4 teaspoon chili powder
- 3 15-ounce cans black beans, rinsed and drained
- 3 1/2 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
- 1 bay leaf
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- Optional toppings: diced avocado, chopped cilantro, sliced green onions, sour cream
Instructions
- In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Next, add the diced onion, celery, carrot, and red bell pepper.
- Cook the vegetables, stirring occasionally, until they are tender, about 8 minutes.
- Add the minced garlic, ground cumin, dried oregano, and chili powder and stir. Cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
- Add black beans, vegetable broth, and bay leaf to the pot. Stir and bring to a boil. Lower heat, cover, and simmer for 15-25 minutes.
- Remove the bay leaf. Blend part of the soup using an immersion blender to thicken it, keeping some beans whole for texture. Alternatively, blend 2 cups of soup in a regular blender until smooth, then return it to the pot.
- Stir in the fresh lime juice. Taste and season with salt and pepper as needed. Serve hot with desired optional toppings.
