2 small tomatoes (or one large tomato (about 8 ounces total weight))
1/3 cup white onion (chopped)
1 garlic clove
1 Tablespoon Olive oil
2 Cups cooked black beans (with a little of its cooking broth)
2 Epazote leaves (if available)
Salt & Ground Black Pepper to taste
1/2- cup chicken or vegetable broth.
1 Avocado (diced)

1 Canned Chipotle pepper
1/2 cup crumbled Queso Fresco

Steps:

Chop the tomatoes and place in a blender along with the chopped onion and garlic. Process until you have a smooth sauce.
Heat the olive oil in a medium saucepan and then pour the tomato sauce.
Cook the tomato sauce over medium-high heat for about 7-8 minutes until it starts to boil.
While the tomato sauce is cooking, puree the black beans and their broth in a blender or food processor until they have a fine texture.
Pour the black bean puree into the saucepan and stir, mixing well. The puree has to have a very fine, silky texture. If you prefer, pass through a strainer to obtain the best results. If the soup is too thick, add the chicken broth a tablespoon at the time to get a creamy texture. Don't pour it all at once, since it could result in a watery soup. Season soup with salt and pepper.
Simmer the soup, stirring frequently for about 15 minutes. Serve warm with your choice of toppings.
