Even Yet Still More Broke-Ass Gourmet: Black Bean Soup

Have I mentioned my new obsession with BrokeAss Gourmet yet? ;-)

The third recipe I've tried so far was the Black Bean Soup. This is a very, very simple recipe that is so pure (and inexpensive!).

I swapped out the canned beans for dried. I triple-washed the beans after they'd soaked, so we haven't been living in a fartastic household. (There's a little tip for ya - wash, wash, wash your beans after soaking and they won't be so much of the "magical fruit.")

Also, on a wild hair, I whipped up this Cilantro Chile Cream notion I came across at Recipezaar. Finally, I added a little curry to the cream. The flavor combinations is outstanding.
