I ended up using 4 cans of black beans (drained and rinsed), which I already had in my pantry. Since others said it lacked "zip", when I chopped up the jalapeno, I included the seeds and ribs, which added the perfect amount of spice for my family. I also reduced the broth to 2 cups since I used canned beans.

Read MoreAn easy recipe that is very delicious and flavorful. The lime juice, jalapeno & cilantro add lots of depth to this recipe.
Read MoreThis soup is good but, I agree, it lacks zip. I added a lot more cilantro and lime for flavor and that helped. Also, I didn't care for the consistency once pureed. It was so thick the following day that it was almost like bean dip, not soup. I added a several cups of water to thin it down, thus subtracting even more zip. I think this is a good start but definitely needs tinkering. If you're good at that, by all means try this but if you prefer to just follow the recipe, probably not the best black bean soup for you.
