• Ready In: 25 mins
• Serves: 2-4

Ingredients

• 1  cup salsa
• 2 (15 1/2ounce) cans black beans
• 2  cups vegetable broth
• 3  tablespoons fresh cilantro
• 2  teaspoons lime juice

Directions

1. pour salsa into a large sauce pan and heat on medium heat.
2. rinse beans in a collander, then add beans and broth to salsa. bring to a boil and let simmer for 15 minutes.
3. in the meantime, mince cilantro. use a knife or a food processor. set cilantro aside.
4. after about 15 minutes of simmering, remove about 1/2 of the soup from the pan and put it in a food processor. puree the soup (it will become thicker) and then put the pureed soup back into the pan. continue to simmer.
5. add minced cilantro and lime juice to soup.
