a simple real food recipe :: quick pinto bean soup
Author: Renee - www.theSIMPLEmoms.com
Ingredients
1 medium onion, chopped
3 large cloves garlic, minced
1 quart chicken stock
3 cups cooked organic pinto beans (Beans preferably sprouted for best nourishment. Could do 2 cans drained organic pintos.)
1 cup organic salsa of choice (Watch ingredients!)
½ tsp taco seasoning (If not using homemade, watch those ingredients!)
Sea salt/pepper to taste
Whole sour cream, sliced avocado, or shredded raw cheese to garnish if desired
Instructions
Saute the onions in 3-4 TB friendly fat of choice (butter, coconut oil, lard) with a few pinches of sea salt for about 7 minutes over medium heat to soften and sweeten.
Add the garlic and cook for a minute.
Add the stock, beans, salsa, and seasoning, and bring to a low simmer for about 7 minutes.
Ladle out half the soup and puree it with an immersion blender or in a regular blender until smooth, and add back into the soup. You could puree the entire soup if you do not wish for whole beans in your soup.
Garnish as desired.
