Course Soup
Servings 8

Ingredients
  

  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 cup diced onion
  • 4 cups Vegetable Broth or water see Recipe Notes
  • 1 14.5 ounce can diced tomatoes
  • 1 15-ounce can black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 15-ounce can pinto beans, rinsed, drained, and mashed
  • 1 15-ounce can corn, drained
  • ½ cup dry polenta
  • 1 tablespoon Taco Seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper

Instructions
 

  • Heat olive oil in large saucepan over medium heat. Cook onions until soft and translucent. Add broth, tomatoes, black beans, mashed pinto beans, corn, polenta, Taco Seasoning, salt, and pepper. Heat to boiling. Reduce heat, and cook 30 minutes.
  • Yield: 8 servings (serving size: about 1 cup)

Notes

  • Substitute 1 1/2 cups cooked brown rice for polenta.
  • Place corn in a food processor and pulse a few times for a cream-style texture.
  • Use kidney beans instead of black or pinto beans.
  • If you don’t have time to make your own vegetable broth, you can use a store-brought brand that’s Daniel Fast friendly. I recommend Kitchen Basics Unsalted Vegetable Stock.
