This is the perfect freezer meal for lunch or dinner.It makes 8 -1 cup servings. Believe it or not, per 1 cup serving this is 0 Freestyle Points. But you'll want at least 2 cups of this thick velvety soup at only 1 Point per 2 cup serving.
Ingredients
3 Slices of Center Cut Bacon
1 Onion, Diced Small
2 Red Bell Peppers, Diced Small
1.5 Tablespoons of Minced Garlic
2 Jalapeno Peppers, Diced Small
1 Teaspoon each Ground Cumin & Ground Coriander
12 Ounces Beef Broth
4 (15 ounce) Cans of Black Beans, Undrained
2 Tablespoons of Lime Juice
1 Tablespoon of Shaohsing Cooking Wine, Optional
Vegetable Cooking Spray
Instructions
Spray a pan with vegetable cooking spray. Heat on high. Add center cut bacon slices and cook until crisp. Remove bacon to a paper towel lined plate to absorb the bacon grease when done.
Remove all bacon grease from pan except for 1 tablespoon. Add in the vegetables, cumin and coriander. Cook on medium heat until vegetables are soft. (To keep all the vegetables the same size, I use this tool).
Empty 3 cans of the black beans into a blender. Puree until smooth.
Add pureed bean mixture to vegetables in the pot. Stir in the bacon, beef broth, lime juice and Shaohsing Cooking Wine, if using. Heat through for about 3-5 minutes.
Add in remaining can of black beans and stir to combine. Cook for about 3 minutes on medium heat.
Serve with 0 Point Yogurt Cheese (recipe here), jalapeno, diced onion or up to ¼ cup of Kraft Fat Free Cheddar Cheese. Using these toppings will NOT increase the points per serving.
