Instructions

  1. In a large pot over medium heat, heat the oil (or water). Add the onion, bell pepper and garlic, and sauté for 5 minutes or until the onion becomes tender and translucent.
  2. Add the water and bouillon cubes, beans, diced tomatoes in their juices, corn kernels, ground cumin, and vegan cheddar shreds (if using). Bring to a boil.
  3. Boil until the vegetables become tender, about 10 minutes.
  4. Remove from heat, serve, and garnish with diced avocado, hot sauce, and tortilla chips (if using).

Notes

  • Cut veggies evenly: So they cook evenly within the black bean corn soup.
  • For a creamier consistency: Use an immersion blender directly in the crockpot or transfer a small amount of the beans and broth to a blender to blend until creamy, then mix it back into the soup.  
  • To adjust the consistency: Add more broth for a thinner, brothier vegan chili soup.
