black bean soup tips and tricks

• If you want a thicker soup you can reduce the amount of chicken stock to 1/2 cup, or add another half can of beans.
• To make this vegetarian/vegan you can substitute the chicken stock with vegetable stock.
• To garnish this soup I like to play with the toppings. A spoonful of Greek yogurt or sour cream is delicious. A squirt of sriracha if I’m craving heat. Or a handful of cheddar popcorn is great for texture and flavor.
• This soup can also be made in a blender and then microwaved to keep it simple.
