Black Bean Confetti Soup image

Love black beans, love soup, love to eat healthfully? This soup is a no brainer. It's my comfort food when it's rainy and cold outside and it doesn't keep me in the kitchen for hours like my other comfort food (chicken and dumplings) You can easily make this a vegetarian soup by substituting the chicken stock with vegetable...

This soup is okay. It's not the best black bean soup I've ever had, but it's not bad either.

I would not recommend this soup. It's a waste of time and money.

I've tried this soup a few times and I'm still not sure what I think of it. It's not bad, but it's not great either.

I wasn't a fan of this soup. I found it to be too bland and watery.

This soup is a bit spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I think next time I'll use less chipotle peppers.

This soup is a great way to use up leftover black beans. It's also a really affordable meal, which is always a plus.

This soup is so easy to make and it's absolutely delicious. I love the smoky flavor from the chipotle peppers.

I made this soup for my family last night and they all loved it! Even my picky kids ate it without complaint. It's definitely a keeper.

This soup is amazing! It's so flavorful and satisfying. I love the combination of black beans, corn, and tomatoes. It's also really easy to make, which is a huge bonus.
