Black Bean Soup

I am only on day 8 post op & tired of regular liquids so I whipped this up & actually forgot I just had a lap band sewn in cause it tastes so good! (You can control the stage by adding more Water, blending or not blending).

2 26 oz cans Black Beans

12 oz chicken or Vegetable stock

1/2 scoop of unflavored Protein Powder

1 medium onion - chopped

2 tsp minced garlic

1 medium bell pepper - chopped

1 tsp sea salt

1/2 tsp ground cumin

1/4 tsp Garlic powder

1 tbs lemon juice

Additional Garlic powder to taste

1/4 c Low fat mild cheddar cheese (optional to garnish)

Combine Chicken stock (or vegetable stock), onion, garlic, and bell pepper in large pot. Bring to a boil and simmer for 10 minutes.

Add 2 cans of beans (do not drain), salt, cumin, garlic powder and lemon juice.

Cook for additional 7 minutes.

Remove from heat.

Puree in blender, food processor or with hand held blender.

Add 1/2 scoop of Protein Powder and continue blending until completely dissolved.

Return mixture to pot. Add extra garlic powder to taste.

Top with 1/4c cheddar to garnish and enjoy. Portion into stage-sized meals & Freeze extras for future use.

(I used organic Chicken broth ,Bushs Black Beans and GNC unflavored whey protien powder)

Make it your Happy New Year soup!

I just might have to. The kids are demanding a make another pot. I did manage to freeze a lil. But I may make it for New years. Using a lil bit of black eyed peas. (Following tradition)

[A New New Dawn 1,695]

Actually, I love making black bean Soup. My kids love it too. Their dad is from Guatemala and this is a very traditional soup. I make mine almost identical to yours except I add carrots and cilantro. We sometimes serve it over rice or with (low fat sour cream - a dollop on top). I think I may have to make this now as I haven't for some time.

[UntamedR 25]

Ah yes that sounds good. Ive spent a little time in Honduras. I'll have to try to remember some of the flavors I've had there. Next time I will add carrots to it! I have a feeling next time will be very soon!

So i tried it tonight . I added my pb and chocolate Protein powder cause it's what i had. Can't really taste the protein powder. The black bean Soup is great. Put some in freezer already. Just yummy. Can i give it to hely to put on the FB recipe group she has, or you can.

Remember Greek yogurt can replace sour cream. It has the same texture, similar taste (I can't really tell the difference) and adds protein!
