Where to find ingredients
You can find these staples at any local supermarket or neighborhood grocery store. Look for fresh produce in the fruit and vegetable section. For the beans, use any leftover seasoned red or black beans; if you need a substitute for the traditional flavor, canned red kidney beans can be used, though you will need to add your own garlic, onion, and herbs to mimic the seasoning.
Preparation method
- Combine the beans, water, and tomatoes in a blender.
- Blend on high until you achieve a smooth consistency.
- Pour the blended mixture into a saucepan.
- Stir in the diced potatoes.
- Simmer over medium heat until the potatoes are tender.
- Check the consistency and stir in a little extra water if you prefer a thinner soup.
- Taste the broth and adjust the salt as necessary.
- Finish with black pepper to taste and serve immediately.
Observations
This soup is the perfect way to make the most of leftover beans, transforming them into a nutrient-packed, flavorful dish that is ideal for cooler days.
