INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Drain the beans and pour all ingredients (except the popcorn) into a blender; blend together until smooth.
  2. On the stove top or in the microwave, heat the soup to preference. Garnish with a handful of popcorn and one last squeeze of fresh lime on top to serve.
  3. For a vegetarian version, use vegetable broth instead of chicken broth.  You can also bulk up the recipe with extra veggies such as the addition of steamed carrots, celery and onion.
