Black Bean and Onion Soup image

Was going to make a Hoppin' John soup but the pantry was empty of black-eyed peas so made this instead. I was pleased with the results but my "boys" (students) thought it lacked spice and added hot sauce.

Time 1h

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/2 teaspoon olive oil
1/2 cup sweet onion (chopped)
3 scallions, chopped (all of it)
2 large carrots, grated
2 stalks celery, minced
2 1/2 teaspoons fresh ginger, minced (1 large knob )
3 fresh garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon sea salt (optional)
2 1/2-3 cups canned black beans, rinsed
8 ounces frozen chopped spinach (don't need to thaw)
8 cups vegetable broth (if store bought, leave out sea salt)
1/2 cup half-and-half (optional)

Steps:

  • .Heat oil over med-high heat in large soup pot.
  • Add the next nine ingredients (include salt, if using).
  • Stir fry until onion is soft. Stir frequently.
  • Add black beans, spinach, and broth.
  • Bring to a boil, then turn down to a simmer, stir and cover.
  • Simmer about 25 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • When serving, drizzle some half "n" half over soup, if desired.
  • I served pita halfs stuffed with lettuce, tomato, and pepperjack cheese with this for a complete meal. I can also see some cooked rice added for a heartier meal.
