Black Bean and Corn Soup

This recipe comes to you courtesy of Sue Edy, one of my coworkers. She calls it her "can't go wrong" black bean soup - and she's right!

2 TBSP olive oil

1/2 cup yellow onions, chopped

2 cans black beans
1 med jar of chunky salsa 
1 can of corn
1 cup of broth (chicken or vegetable)
 
Soften onions in oil.  Mash one can of black beans. Mix all ingredients in a sauce pan. Do not drain cans. Heat to desired temperature and enjoy. 

I also add two finely chopped jalapenos because I like the heat.  

Sprinkle grated cheese on top and serve with a few tortilla chips.

You can also add a few cups of cooked chicken or ground turkey or beef. This would make it a lot more like a chili. 

Happy eating!
