This Smoky Black Bean Tortilla Soup is a bowl of cozy, bold flavor that comes together in one pot. It starts with a base of onions, peppers, and garlic sautéed until soft, then simmered with fire-roasted tomatoes, vegetable broth, and two types of beans. The magic is in the spices: cumin, oregano, and smoky chipotle peppers in adobo sauce create a rich, complex broth with a gentle kick. The soup is partially blended for a creamy texture while leaving plenty of whole beans and vegetables. Served with a mountain of crispy baked tortilla strips, creamy avocado, fresh cilantro, and a squeeze of lime, it's a completely satisfying, plant-based meal that's perfect for chilly days or when you need a healthy comfort food fix.
