My tastes have changed significantly over the past few years. When I was married I was a very picky eater. I didn’t like my food to touch on the plate and preferred my food bland.
Today I eat almost everything and prefer everything mixed together. I have done a complete 180. I eat a lot of beans (black and red but others as well) and really enjoy a little spice. For this recipe I add a little tang to the spice with a healthy squeeze of fresh lime juice. I’ve also added fresh avocado right before eating which balances the spice of the soup very well.
I made this yesterday and it’s one of my new favorite things to eat! If you try it let me know how it turns out!
