Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 tsp neutral cooking oil generic cooking oil
  • ½ onion diced
  • ½ green bell pepper diced
  • 2 c black beans cooked (drained, if canned
  • 1 (14 oz) can tomato undrained, diced
  • 1 c corn (thawed if frozen)
  • 4 c stock (chicken or vegetable)
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • ½ tsp cayenne pepper
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper ground
  • 1 avocado diced and tossed with a splash of lemon juice to prevent browning

Instructions

  1. In a medium soup pot, heat oil. Add onions and peppers and sauté over medium high heat until translucent (3-5 min).
  2. Add beans, tomatoes with juice, and corn. Mix well.
  3. Add stock and bring to a simmer. Simmer, covered, for 10 min.
  4. Add paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper to taste. Cover and simmer an additional 5 min.
  5. Remove soup from heat and stir in avocado.
  6. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • To peel and pit the avocado, we normally take a small knife and cut a slit all the way around the circumference of the fruit, cutting down to the pit. Once the cut is made, you can twist the halves in opposite directions and the pit should release from one of the sides. To remove the pit from the other side, give it a good whack with a large knife. When the knife is embedded in the pit, twist to pop it out. You can then use a spoon to scoop the flesh out of the skin.
