Black Bean Sweet Potato Soup is a healthy vegan soup that is ready in 30 minutes perfect for those busy wintery weeknights.
Who doesn't need a flavorful easy ready in 30 minute soup recipe? Anyone, anyone? I didn't think so.
This one has the added bonus of being vegan, so you can enjoy it on Meatless Monday or Lenten Fridays. Or toss in some leftover chicken or beef if you prefer.
The sweet potato might seem odd at first, but it is a wonderful addition to this southwestern flavored dish.
