MOMables Black Bean Soup (GF)

I am a sucker for black bean soup, and it really does get expensive to buy it premade (and even more to get it in a restaurant). When I saw the MOMables GF recipe for Black Bean Soup, I simply had to try it. It sounded delicious, we had all the ingredients, and it was apparently very quick to make! Also, with one super simple alteration, the recipe could be vegan. Easy peasy!

My hubby took the kids for a jog, and I started dinner. Dinner involved opening cans (unless you soaked and cooked your own black beans, stirring things while they heated, and then serving. Yes, it was really that simple.

I was astonished at how easy it was! Even more so at the fact that this meal costs about $7.50 if you're buying store brand items and full price.

I was even more surprised that Bobble and Squiggle both ate all their food, and that hubby got seconds while going on about how this recipe was a keeper. I had seconds, myself.

This recipe fed us a lot. In fact, this is what was leftover after dinner (which fed a 1yo, 3yo, and two bowls full for 2 adults):

Leftovers in our 2 quart dish

As you can see, definitely enough for leftovers the next day!

If you're not GF, you could always eat with tortilla chips. We enjoyed this with tortilla chips one night cornbread for lunch the next day, and with cheese quesadillas, too. (MOMables has a free recipe for making GF spinach tortillas, too!)
