Cozy up with a bowl of Southwestern Soup! Packed full of black beans, corn, onion, green pepper, celery, green chiles, and tomatoes, it's hearty, bold-flavored, and oh-so good!
Heat olive oil in a large pot. Add onion, green pepper, and celery. Sauté for 3-4 minutes or until the vegetables are soft and tender.
Stir in the diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, green chiles, vegetable broth, chili powder, cumin, and onion powder. Simmer uncovered for 15 minutes.
Stir in the black beans and corn. Simmer for another 5 minutes.
Notes
I prefer baby gold and white or shoepeg corn which has sweet and tender kernels. Fresh corn is also really good when in season!
Store your leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months. When it's time to serve, simply reheat either in the microwave or on the stovetop.
I love to dress up my soup with toppings such as cheese, sour cream, and tortilla chips! You could also add avocado, cilantro, and lime juice!
