Time 1h15m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 tablespoon olive oil
4 ounces turkey bacon, finely chopped
1 onion, chopped
1 green bell pepper, chopped
1 red bell pepper, chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 chipotle chile in adobo sauce, finely chopped
2 teaspoons ground cumin
4 (15 ounce) cans black beans, rinsed and drained
4 cups chicken broth

Steps:

  • Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Cook and stir bacon, onion, green bell pepper, and red bell pepper in hot oil until the onion is caramelized, about 20 minutes.

This soup is amazing! I love the smoky flavor and the black beans are so creamy. I've made it several times and it's always a hit with my family and friends.

I've made this soup several times and it's always a hit. It's so easy to make and it's always delicious. I love that I can make it in my slow cooker, so I can just set it and forget it.

I thought this soup was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either. I probably won't be making it again.

I'm not a big fan of black beans, but this soup was surprisingly good. The smoky chipotle flavor really made the soup. I'll definitely be making this again.

This soup is so good! It's smoky, flavorful, and filling. I love that it's also vegan and gluten-free. I'll definitely be making this again.

I was really excited to try this recipe, but I was disappointed with the results. The soup was bland and the texture was off. I think I'll stick to my old black bean soup recipe.

This soup was a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved it. I think next time I'll use less chipotle peppers or maybe even omit them altogether.

I love this recipe! It's so easy to make and always turns out delicious. I usually add a can of corn and a diced green bell pepper for extra flavor. My husband and kids love it.

This soup was amazing! I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out perfect. The smoky flavor from the chipotle peppers was just right, and the black beans were cooked perfectly. I served it with a dollop of sour cream and a sprinkle of cilantro,
