How To Make Easy Black Bean and Corn Soup

This soup is so flavorful and super easy to make! In a stock pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add in the diced onion and diced red pepper.Cook for about 7 – 10 minutes until the onions and peppers are slightly soft but not mushy.

Add the drained and rinsed black beans and salsa. Stir to incorporate. Then stir in the vegetable stock and frozen corn.

Depending on the black beans and vegetable stock you use, you may need to add salt if desired.

Bring to a low boil and cook for about 15 – 20 minutes. For a thicker creamy texture, use an immersion blender and give the soup 3 – 4 zaps in the pot to thicken the soup. This will not puree all the beans but about half of them. You can also puree the entire pot for a smooth and creamy soup.

If you don’t have an immersion blender, you can scoop about half the soup into a conventional blender, pulse and then add back to the pot. Of course, you can choose to not blend the beans at all!

Serve immediately or freeze in individual servings for meal prep.

Hope you enjoy!
