A black bean soup recipe made with salsa?
This soup is creamy, thick and with just a hint of heat from the Roasted Red Pepper Salsa. Yes, you heard well, we are using salsa! This is the first of several recipes showcasing how versatile our salsa can be, and how it can be incorporated in your everyday cooking. Also, check out one of our favorite party dip recipes Fiesta Roasted Red Pepper Dip that is made with the same salsa.
I was one of those people who thought salsa was only good to eat with chips, or put in Mexican dishes. But, I found a new universe of possibilities of how to incorporate salsa as an ingredient in a lot of my recipes.
