This is a pretty easy soup to throw together and you can always substitute the veggies and type of beans for what you have on hand.
Ingredients:
diced onion
1 cup carrot
1 red bell pepper
2 garlic cloves
1 can (14.5 oz) of black beans, rinsed and drained
1 can (14.5 oz) of diced tomatoes
2 cups diced peeled butternut squash (1/2 inch cubes)
2 zucchinis sliced and cut in half
2 cups water
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 cups greens- either spinach or chard. Tonight I had spinach and used that.
In a large soup pot or dutch oven heat up some olive oil and add: onions, carrots, bell pepper, and butternut squash and cook, stirring occasionally, until veggies begin to soften- about 5-7 minutes. Add garlic, zucchini and spices and salt. Stir and saute for about 1 minute more. Then add can of tomatoes and water. Bring to boil then reduce the heat and simmer, stirring occasionally about 20 minutes. Add can of beans. Simmer an additional 10 minutes. Add the greens and cook until wilted/tender (time depends on the greens, spinach takes less time than chard).
Makes 4-6 servings.
