How to Make Vegan Black Bean Enchilada Soup Recipe?

• In this soup, I have used chopped onions, carrots, scallions, diced tomatoes, black beans, and some minced garlic. So, as you might have guessed, the first step is sauteing the veggies. So, in a pan, we heat some olive oil. As the Oil shimmers, we add chopped onions, carrots, scallions, and garlic. We'll saute the veggies until they become soft and fragrant.
• Now add diced tomatoes, black beans, and spices. I value the spices in my recipes. According to my, spices play a huge role in making or breaking a recipe. So, I have added them with a lot of care and a lot of thought. I have started with some smoked paprika and some ground cumin because Mexican recipes are just not Mexican enough without some heat right? And, I LOVE the combination of cumin and paprika. Besides that, I have added some dried and crushed oregano and some dried thyme. I just love the beautiful fragrance of thyme. Along with that just to spice it up a little bit more I have added some crushed red pepper flakes. Don't worry. It is not gonna be so hot that it becomes inedible. You are gonna love it for sure. Lastly, how can we forget our seasoning right? So, I finished it off with some salt and ground black pepper. Cook the Spices for about a minute.
• Now add some low sodium vegetable broth and stir well. Finally, let's bring in the star of the show - our good friend - Enchilada Sauce. (Applause!!!)
• Lastly, we are gonna add some corn. I have used frozen corn. You can use fresh corn as well. After adding corn, give all of that a quick stir.
• And, finally, cover cook for about 10-minutes until the veggies cook completely. So, there you go, that is how you make Black Bean Enchilada Soup.

Tips to make this Soup Effectively:

• Use the Spices Moderately: In this soup, you gotta use the spices moderately so that there is a beautiful balance of spices. Too many spices or too little spices can ruin the dish.
• Use Low Sodium Vegetable Broth: Low Sodium Vegetable broth helps it stay healthy. Moreover, low sodium salt makes it less salty.
• Make it Creamy & Cheesy: You can make it creamier by adding heavy cream or once the soup is done stir in some Mexican Cheese or Mild Cheddar Cheese. Of course, then it won't remain vegan anymore.

Other Soups you can Try:

• Potato Leek Soup
