The ingredients for Spicy Black Bean Soup are:

100 g Pancetta or bacon, diced
1/2 an onion, diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 jalapeno peppers, diced
1 bell pepper, diced
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp chili powder
1 large tomato, diced
1 tbsp cider vinegar (or white wine, whatever you have)
3 cups chicken stock
3 cups black beans

Here is how you make Spicy Black Bean Soup:

Cook the pancetta, allowing the fat to render. Toss in the diced onion and cook until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook 1-2 minutes. Add the spices, tomato and peppers. Cook for about five minutes, until the peppers have softened.Add the stock, vinegar and beans. If you want a thinner soup, add more stock. We were happy with three cups. Cook for 10-20 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld. Remove 2 cups of soup and puree. Return puree to pot and cook a couple more minutes.Remove from heat and serve. A good garnish is a tbsp of fat free greek yogurt(not in nutrition facts). This makes 6 big bowls of very filling soup. It's also spicy, so if you're sensitive to spice, tone it down a bit in the chili powder, cumin and jalapeno departments. Enjoy!Number of Servings: 6Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user ALIE719.
