- 0.5 teaspoon Chili powder
- 6 cups Vegetable broth
- 15 ounces Black beans canned, rinsed and drained
- 1 teaspoon Lime juice
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt

Instructions
Preparation Steps
- Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add garlic, cumin, and chili powder and cook for 1 minute more.
- Pour in vegetable broth and bring to a simmer. Add black beans, lime juice, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine.
- Reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes, or until flavors have melded.
- Use an immersion blender to partially blend the soup, leaving some beans whole for texture. Alternatively, transfer a few cups of soup to a regular blender and blend until smooth, then return to the pot.
- Serve hot, garnished with your favorite toppings, such as sour cream, shredded cheese, or chopped cilantro.
