Spicy Black Bean Soup with Wild Shrimp

Black Bean Soup

Are you feeling the chill in the air these days? It’s about that time for food that warms your bones and by that I mean it’s soup time. In this economy soups and stews are perfect for feeding large families or in my case, perfect for having left overs often feeding us for a couple days.

This recipe is inspired from our friend, Elizabeth, who made a large pot of it for a dinner party. She actually grilled the shrimp on the bbq but as you’ll see here, you can just drop them into the soup to cook. Either way, this is a delicious hearty soup that’s not only amazingly easy to make but also easy on the wallet.

RECIPE: serves 6-8

1 1/2 lbs. wild shrimp - peeled & deveined
1 drizzle olive oil
1 medium onion - finely chopped
