SOUTHWESTERN BLACK BEAN AND CHICKEN CORN CHOWDER
A hearty stick-to-your-ribs soup that your family will enjoy. I like to use the meat from a grocery store rotisserie chicken to save time. If your kids don't like chunks of tomato in their soup (like mine) use a hand/stick blender to puree the diced tomatoes before adding.

Tips:
- Start your chowder by adding a combination of vegetables and aromatics such as onions, celery, carrots, garlic, and bay leaves to a pot with olive oil or butter over medium heat. Sauté until the vegetables are tender and have released their flavors.
- When adding the black beans to the chowder, be sure to rinse and drain them thoroughly. This will help to remove any excess starch and salt.
- Feel free to add other vegetables to the chowder, such as corn, zucchini, or butternut squash. Just be sure to adjust the cooking time as necessary.
