How to Make Vegetarian Black Bean Soup

This soup is so flavorful and super easy to make! In a stock pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add in chopped onion and minced garlic. Cook for about 5 minutes.

Add the drained black beans, diced chilis and vegetable stock. Stir to incorporate. Add in the garlic powder, garlic salt and any additional salt and pepper to your taste. Depending on the black beans and vegetable stock you use, the salt needed may vary.

Simmer for about 15 minutes. Now, using an immersion blender, pulse inside the pot about 4 or 5 times. This will not puree all the beans but about half of them, and make the soup creamy. You can also puree 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 this soup makes great meal prep! Separate servings into airtight containers and refrigerate or freeze.

Hope you enjoy!

Notes

  • I always say salt and pepper to taste, in this case the saltiness can vary depending on black beans and vegetable stock. So salt to your liking or as needed.
  • If you don’t have an immersion blender, you can scoop about half of the soup into a conventional blender and pulse, then return to pot.
  • If you like a smooth soup, use a blender to pulse all of the soup until smooth.
