Make this three ingredient Mexican Black Bean Soup in a matter of minutes. The best part is, you decide just how spicy you like it!

You can make this soup using only three ingredients. Seriously! I was sitting there one day in my kitchen craving that black bean soup I made a few years ago, but wanted to make something new. 

I came up with this Mexican Black Bean Soup instead using ingredients I already had in my pantry.

Mexican Black Bean Soup

We're not a family that eats a lot of Mexican food; mainly because we don't like spicy food. Some of us can tolerate it a bit more than others, but I do always have a jar of salsa on hand.

Not only does it curb my spicy food cravings, it's also pretty healthy when you think about it. Tomatoes. Peppers. Chilies. Onions. There could be worse things to eat, right?

So when I decided that I was in the mood for a quick soup, I combined the salsa with a can of black beans and vegetable broth and Voilá...soup! This Mexican Black Bean Soup was ready in about 15 minutes.

All you really have to do is heat all three ingredients together over high heat on top of the stove in a saucepan; then blend with an immersion blender (or a regular one if you don't have one).

You can garnish with a bit of sour cream and tortilla chips if you'd like too. The soup was hearty, spicy and delicious. At only 145 calories per cup, it also has a lot of protein and fiber and 0g of fat. Not to mention it's also inexpensive to make. ~Enjoy!

    This is delicious! Perfect for Lent. I had never tried made this kind of soup before or even tried it so this was a big deal for me! I used mild salsa for my own taste buds and put hot sauce on the table for everyone else to 'doctor' their own. Even my 2-year-old who pretty much only likes noodles asked for more! Share the leftovers with co-workers and it was a big hit too!

      I'm so glad you liked it Jaime! I'm not a big fan of a lot of heat in my food either so I used mild too. This soup was so quick and easy which was an added bonus! 🙂
