Jackie's Southwest Black Bean Sweet Potato Soup

Directions

  • Heat a large dutch oven or pot over medium heat and add in a splash of water, vegetable broth or cooking oil to coat. Add in the onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until tender and fragrant. Add the garlic and bell pepper and sauté for 2-3 more minutes.

  • Next add the tomato paste and spices, and a splash of broth or water to deglaze if needed. Stir for 30-60 seconds until the tomato paste has darkened slightly and caramelized. Add the sweet potatoes and stir.

  • Combine the vegetable bouillon with the water and add to the pot, along with the tomatoes and tomato sauce. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 10-12 minutes until sweet potatoes are tender.

  • Pour in the black beans, corn, and spinach and heat through. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

  • Serve hot topped with cilantro and avocado slices.
