INGREDIENTS:

1 can black beans

1 can Rotel tomatoes (original)

1/3 - 1/2 cup chicken broth

sour cream/lime/cilantro for garnish

(Makes 3-4 servings.)

1) Drain the black beans.

2) In a pot, pour in drained black beans and the can of Rotel (juices included). Add chicken broth.

3) As it's heating, use an immersion blender to blend the soup until a tad chunky, or longer for a smooth consistency, depending on your preference. (I prefer smooth.)
