EASY VEGETARIAN BLACK BEAN TORTILLA SOUP
Quick, hearty soup with a bit of a kick. Can be made Vegan by omitting sour cream. Tame the spice down by substituting diced tomatoes for the Ro-Tel. I serve the soup with corn chips, but tri-colored tortilla strips add some visual appeal. I like to leave the black beans whole, but you can make it creamy by mashing the beans.

BLACK BEAN TORTILLA SOUP
I found this in the January 2009 Good Housekeeping. I cooked chicken thighs to make homemade broth so I'd have more chicken broth for other recipes instead of using reduced-sodium chicken broth, and I didn't have poblano chilies so I used jalapenos. I had black beans already cooked in the freezer so I didn't use canned. The cilantro and lime juice make the recipe very flavorful...the soup would be bland without them. There are other recipes for Black Bean Tortilla Soup posted, but this one is another variation. Hearty and filling...
