Ingredients

  1. 1 tablespoon oil
  2. 1 small red onion, diced
  3. 2 celery ribs, diced
  4. 1 red bell pepper, diced
  5. 1 chipotle pepper in adobo sauce, minced
  6. 1 tablespoon chili powder
  7. 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  8. 3 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
  9. Two 15-ounce cans black beans
  10. One 15-ounce can diced tomatoes
  11. 2 limes, zested and juiced
  12. Salt and pepper, to taste
  13. 4 large eggs
  14. Chopped fresh cilantro, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Heat the oil in a large high-sided skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the onion, celery and bell pepper and cook, stirring, until they begin to soften, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the chipotle pepper, chili powder and ground cumin and cook, stirring, for an additional 30 seconds. Add the vegetable broth, black beans and diced tomatoes. Bring the mixture to a simmer, reduce the heat to medium and cook for about 15 minutes.
  2. Add the lime zest and juice and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  3. Use a spoon to create 4 small wells in the soup. Crack each egg into a small bowl and carefully drop one egg into each of the wells. Cover and cook until the eggs are set to your liking, about 5 minutes. Top with the fresh cilantro and scoop 1 egg into each of 4 bowls, then divide the rest of the soup among the bowls and serve.

Super tasty! I substituted a can of Rotel chunky tomatoes with chiles and added a bit of cilantro while cooking. I also pureed some of the cooked mixture to add body. I didn’t have veggie broth. Water worked just fine.

It’s super tasty! I used some canned chipotle in adobo sauce that I had saved in the freezer. Changes included no celery (I detest it), fresh tomatoes because I was trying to use them up, and the addition of garlic. The lime is a necessity to round out the flavors.

It’s delicious and feels light but filling. I’ll definitely be making this again.
