Ingredients

2 cans (19 oz each) Progresso™ Vegetable Classics hearty black bean soup
1 cup chicken broth
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
1 teaspoon chicken bouillon granules
1 cup whipping cream
4 cups cooked Spanish or regular long grain rice, if desired
Fried tortilla strips (1/4 inch wide), if desired
Cilantro leaves, if desired

Directions

1

In blender, place bean soup and chicken broth; cover and blend until smooth. (If necessary, blend in batches.)
2

In 4-quart saucepan, heat oil over medium-high heat. Cook onion in oil 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tender. Stir in blended soup mixture, bouillon granules and cream.
3

Cover and cook over medium-high heat about 10 minutes, stirring frequently, or until thoroughly heated. Serve with rice; top with tortilla strips. Garnish with cilantro leaves.

To add a little extra spiciness, add a canned chipotle chile in adobo sauce before blending the soup mixture. For chunkier soup, add a 15-ounce can of Progresso® black beans, drained, before you heat the soup.
To substitute for the Progresso® black bean soup, decrease the amount of whipping cream to 3/4 cup and use 2 cans (15 oz each) Progresso® black beans, undrained.
If a thinner soup is desired, substitute part of the whipping cream with chicken broth.
