This soup is delicious! I made it for a potluck and it was a huge hit. Everyone loved the smoky flavor of the chipotle peppers and the creaminess of the avocado. I'll definitely be making this soup again!

I tried this recipe and it was just okay. The soup was a bit too salty for my taste and the beans were a bit undercooked. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

This soup was a disappointment. The flavors were bland and the texture was mushy. I wouldn't recommend this recipe.

I love this soup! It's so easy to make and it's always a crowd-pleaser. I usually add a bit of extra cumin and chili powder to give it a little more kick.

This black bean soup is a winner! It's flavorful, easy to make, and a great way to use up leftover beans. I especially love the addition of lime, which gives the soup a bright, citrusy flavor.
