Why I love this soup:
One of the first dishes I ever made from scratch was black bean soup! At the time I was learning how to cook vegetarian and soup was the least intimidating recipe from the cookbook I bought! It’s crazy to look back at those days and see how far I’ve come!
The thing is, I was right! Soup is the perfect recipe if you are just getting started with cooking! It’s so easy to make, it doesn’t have a ton of steps and you can make a big or small batch depending on how comfortable you are with the recipe!
This recipe for vegan black bean soup only makes 2 servings, but you could easily double or triple that to feed a crowd! This is a recipe I make when I’m short on time but really want to have something healthy and filling for lunch or dinner!
The key to making this vegan black bean soup in 10 minutes is using the right ingredients! The fire roasted tomatoes add a depth of flavor and the vegetable broth makes it taste like it’s been cooking all day!
Ingredients:
- Organic black beans, cooked (either from a can or cooked ahead of time – see below)
- Fire roasted tomatoes, crushed
- Red onion

- Start by sautéing the red onion in the pan for 2 minutes

This was so easy and just delicious. I subbed the fire roasted tomatoes for roasted Roma tomatoes but can’t wait to try this again with the fire roasted. My husband loved it and said to keep in the rotation. He was also amazed how quick it was to prepare.
