April 10, 2009, Newsletter Issue #250: Mexican Bean Soup


1

Tip of the Week

This Mexican Bean soup is warm and filling. I like to serve it with corn muffins.
Crushed corn tortillas or croutons and some grated cheese make a nice topping.

1 Tablespoon olive oil
1 medium onion, chopped
1 clove garlic, crushed
1 medium green pepper, seeded and chopped
12 ounces ripe tomatoes, peeled and chopped
15 ounces kidney beans, rinsed
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
3 3/4 cups vegetable stock, or chicken stock
2 Tablespoons tomato paste
1 whole avocado, cut in 1/2" cubes
1 cup corn
2 dashes hot pepper sauce
1 Tablespoon fresh cilantro, chopped
salt and pepper, to taste

Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and cook until soft. Stir in garlic, bell pepper and tomatoes, cook 3-4 minutes. Pour in stock, add tomato paste and 3/4 of the beans; simmer for 30 minutes.

Cool soup slightly. In a blender or food processor process until smooth. Return to cleaned saucepan. Season with salt, pepper and hot sauce. Add remaining beans, avocado and cilantro. Reheat gently until warm.
