I turned the recipe back into a dip by omitting the broth and adding a little olive oil. I also added a chopped jalapeño. Very fresh and flavorful!

Yum! Mine was a little chunky because my food processor-well-it’s just not that cool. The flavor was awesome and it was so quick and easy! Perfect quick soup and sandwich meal for a cool spring day!

Jenndk – so sorry about leaving out that instruction! Yes, whenever working with canned beans, it’s almost always essential to drain and rinse the beans first. I will def modify the instructions. Thank you so much for pointing it out. Glad to hear you were able to save and enjoy the recipe.

Glad I didn’t leave a review yesterday… if you read my comments on the Comment page you will understand.
Now that I figured it out, so to speak, I really like this soup!
Super satisfying and such a bright flavor.

DRAIN the cans of beans!!! That is what mucked it up when I made it. I was on the verge of throwing out what I made yesterday and then decided to put it in the fridge and see if I could fix it. I bought 3 more cans of beans, drained them and then put 1 can at a time into my blender with some of the cold “soup” that I had and added a little more garlic, onion powder, and salt and blended it. Did that with all 3 cans and now its the consistency I was hoping for and tastes great!
It doesn’t say to drain the beans in the recipe, and some of you who are better/more experienced cooks than I am may have known to do that, but I had to figure it out the hard way, LOL! Maybe I can save someone else from doing the same thing.

I don’t know what went wrong… I followed the directions and this didn’t come out at all like I expected. It is real brothy, I thought it would be thicker and the lime and cilantro are almost overwhelming and I am a fan of both.
I am disappointed.

What a perfect weeknight meal! It’s filling, quick to make, super tasty, and healthy to boot (creamy without the cream =). I served it with some goat cheese sprinkled on top, which was delicious. This recipe is awesome and everyone should make it immediately.
