I’m going to be honest with you: I’m not much of a soup fan. Rachel went through a phase of obsessing over soups this month, so I knew I would be asked to make soup for the Recipe of the Week blog. I went with something super-basic that I think we can all love. I was shown an awesome recipe for black bean soup on Vegan Piggy’s website and knew that I should give it a shot. What I really wanted was a burrito with black beans, so having black bean soup was the next best thing. I scaled down the recipe to make just one or two servings, but if you’re looking to feed a whole gang, I recommend going with the original recipe. Shall we get the party started?
Black Bean Soup
1 can black beans
1/4 can diced tomatoes
1 Tbsp. olive oil
1 clove garlic, minced
1/4 red onion, diced
1 carrot, peeled and chopped
1/4 cup vegetable stock
Pinch chopped fresh herbs (cilantro, parsley, etc.)
Pinch each: cumin, chili powder, paprika
Salt and pepper, to taste
Makes 1 to 2 servings
Dip your spoon into a delicious cup of black bean soup and have a great meal!

Too long to explain here, it's long enough for a novel.
Father loves to farm, be self sustainable, loves to read, he's a antiques/vintage auctioneer, art student, and looks like mr. Rogers. My mother is a Montessori teacher and is amazing with children, all about local organic foods, loves gardening, cooking etc. my sister who is nine years older than me was into indie music and introduced me to all sorts of things at a young age. This all rubbed of on me and from that base I grew into similar things. I'm an INFJ
I'm tall, a geek, nacho - obsessed, I love sewing and Cath Kidston, also I'm vegetarian (wannabe vegan.)
Well let's just say life ain't always beautiful but it's a beautiful ride. I love all my pets and would do anything for them. I have one dog, two cats, a ferret and my babygirl shaymin,(the cutest hedgehog alive) I'm into all different kinds of music. I'm a singer myself and love art.
I love animals about as much as rock, heavy metal, tea, and coffee. Hoping to make a difference and help animals through PETA!!!
I want to get into marketing but not have to rely on people which have different morals and worldviews than I do to hire me. While I'm figuring this out, I want to show everyone what I believe in and spur them into action against injustices.
