From Cooking with Trader Joe's
1 medium yellow onion, peeled and chopped, or 2 cups bagged Freshly Diced Onion
1 clove crushed garlic, or 1 cube frozen Crushed Garlic
2 Tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon ground cumin
2 (15-oz) cans black beans (do not drain)
1 cup (half a jar) Chunky Salsa
2 Tablespoons lime juice (juice of 1 lime)
Plain yogurt, such as Plain Cream Line Yogurt, or sour cream
In a medium pot, sauté onions in olive oil until they are soft and translucent.
Sprinkle in cumin and garlic and sauté for a minute; pour in black beans (including juices), salsa, and lime. Stir to combine and bring to a simmer. Simmer covered for 20 minutes.
Ladle soup into individual bowls and top with a dollop of yogurt. Chili and Lime Tortilla Chips or other white corn tortilla chips go nicely on the side.
