• flat-out flatbread • cuban-style chicken • cooking spray • cumin • oregano • garlic • bay leaf • vegetable broth

Ingredients

In a large soup pot, heat oil over medium heat, swirling to coat. Add onions, sausage, green pepper, garlic, and bay leaf.

1.

Add 1 can of broth, stirring to deglaze pan and loosen any browned bits. Then add black beans, tomato paste, salt, oregano, cumin, and black pepper.

2.

Serve soup as desired – we suggest serving in cooled bread bowls, garnished with toppings such as reduced-fat sour cream, shredded cheese, green onions, and tomatoes.

3.

This soup will continue to thicken as it sits. It refrigerates and freezes well, so it's a great make-ahead, but when you reheat it, you may also find that you'd like to add a bit of broth at that time.
