SPICY HEALTHY TACO BEAN SOUP



Spicy Healthy Taco Bean Soup image

This is a great, healthy recipe that I originally got from a weight watchers meeting, but that I didn't actually try myself until a coworker made it for a faculty lunch. It's amazing how the refried beans thicken the soup and give it more body than the broth alone. It's super tasty, but quite spicy. I cut the spice by topping individual servings with fat free sour cream and shredded cheese. You could also replace the spicy diced tomatoes with an additional can of regular tomatoes if you don't like so much heat. Another way to reduce the heat would be to add an additional can of chicken broth and more beans, either more black beans or a can of kidney beans. Don't like it meatless? Stir in some browned ground beef or turkey, or add some cubed or shredded cooked chicken. Note: After reorganizing my pantry, I realized I have two similar types of tomatoes, and that I have used Mexican style diced tomatoes the last couple of times I made this, which likely made this more spicy than the rotel style tomatoes would have.

Categories     Black Beans

Time 30m

Yield 10 cups

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 large onion
1 (1 1/4 ounce) packet taco seasoning
1 (15 ounce) can whole kernel corn, drained
1 (15 ounce) can reduced-sodium chicken broth
1 (15 ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 (15 ounce) can great northern beans, rinsed and drained
1 (16 ounce) can fat-free refried beans
1 (15 ounce) can spicy diced tomatoes (like rotel)
1 (14 ounce) can diced tomatoes

Steps:

  • Slice or dice the onion and sauté in a stock pot until soft (in cooking spray, a tablespoon of olive oil, or a little of the chicken broth).
  • Add remaining ingredients and simmer 15-20 minutes.
  • Serve with fat free sour cream and low-fat shredded cheese, if desired. If you like cilantro, chop a little and throw some on top of the soup. Also tasty (though not as healthy) topped with a handful of Fritos.
  • Great with a piece of hearty corn bread and fresh fruit.
  • This recipe can also be made in a crock pot. Sauté onions first, combine everything in a crockpot, and cook on low 5-6 hours.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Use a variety of beans for a more flavorful soup. Black beans, kidney beans, and pinto beans are all good choices.
  • Add some chopped vegetables to the soup for extra nutrition and flavor. Carrots, celery, and onions are all good options.
  • Use a low-sodium vegetable broth or water to make the soup healthier.
  • Season the soup with chili powder, cumin, and oregano for a classic taco flavor.
  • Top the soup with your favorite taco toppings, such as shredded cheese, sour cream, and avocado.
