4 c. canned chicken broth
6 cloves garlic or garlic salt
1 med. onion, chopped
1 c. chopped celery
1 c. chopped carrots
1 tsp. ground coriander
1/4 tsp. ground red pepper
1/4 tsp. salt
3 (15 oz.) cans black beans, drained
2 tbsp. chili powder
1/8 c. chopped cilantro
1 chopped tomato
1/2 can Rotel tomatoes

In medium stockpot, simmer chicken broth, garlic, onion, celery, carrots and seasonings for 1 hour. In a blender or food processor, puree one can of the black beans; add to stockpot. Stir in remaining two cans of beans, drained Rotel, chopped tomato and cilantro and heat thoroughly. Better double it -- it's wonderful!
