What to serve with black bean soup?

I don't think the soup alone with be enough for Dh. 

And am I crazy for giving my diarrhea prone toddler bean soup? LOL

Re: What to serve with black bean soup?

  • cornbread and yes, it might not be a good idea to give your toddler the soup.
  • Loading the player...
  • corn bread and a salad?

    And, yes maybe a little crazy.  But you never know until you try it.  Maybe the beans won't be a trigger.

  • Actually,  a lack of fiber in the diet can trigger diarrhea, so it could help her.  I serve it with a braut, grilled cheese, or baked chicken sandwich (just bake chicken and shred with some bbq sauce.)
  • Corn bread, tortilla chips, and yes. lol.

  • I like sourdough w/ black bean soup. Y-U-M! I would give it to my toddler but he has a stomach of steel...

  • Have you found any dairy-free cheese that is worth eating?  If yes, I'd do cheese quesadillas and guacamole.  If not, I'd do cornbread and a mexican salad with lots of tomatoes and avocados.

  • a monte cristo sammie!  yum.  then your dd could have the sammie and not the soup.
  • recipe please.  I would give her a little just in case she can't tolerate it.

  • Thanks for all the suggestions! Making me hungry already. And no, I would rather not eat cheese than the dairy free varieties that I have tried :(

    Here ya go sweetie:

    Ingredients

    ?                                 1 spray(s) cooking spray

    ?                                 1 medium onion(s), finely chopped

    ?                                 4 medium garlic clove(s), minced

    ?                                 45 oz canned black beans, undrained, divided (three 15 oz cans)

    ?                                 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes, or to taste

    ?                                 1 tsp ground cumin

    ?                                 14 1/2 oz fat-free chicken broth, or vegetable broth

    ?                                 10 oz canned tomatoes with green chilies, such as Rotel Tomatoes

    ?                                 11 oz canned yellow corn, drained

    Instructions

    ?                                 Coat bottom of a large stockpot with cooking spray. Add onion and garlic and cook, stirring frequently, until onions are soft but not brown, about 5 minutes.

    ?                                 Place one can of beans in blender; add saut?ed onion mixture, red pepper flakes and cumin. Cover and blend on high until smooth, about 30 seconds. Pour mixture back into stockpot.

    ?                                 Place second can of beans and broth in blender and puree until smooth; add to stockpot.

    Stir third can of beans (do not puree first), tomatoes and green chilies, and corn into stockpot. Bring to a boil, lower heat to medium and simmer for 20 to 25 minutes. Yields about 1 1/2 cups of soup per serving

  • Thank you!  I love black bean soup!  G loves bean.  he just eats those at any Mexican place.  that's all he wants!

  • arroz con pollo? just toss some seared chicken breasts and thighs in with the rice as you're cooking it. I also like to add olives. that way, you could mix the beans in with the rice. YUM.
