Black Bean Soup
Smoky, hearty, and deeply comforting, this black bean soup is a weeknight hero and a meal prep favorite. Aromatics like onion, garlic, celery, and carrot form a flavorful base, while cumin, smoked paprika, and oregano add warmth and depth. Simmered with rich broth and finished with a splash of lime and fresh cilantro, it’s a versatile dish that pairs beautifully with cornbread, rice, or a crisp salad. Blend it for a creamy twist or keep it rustic—either way, it’s a nourishing bowl that’s ready to anchor your next cozy dinner or themed flight.
