Fajita Soup

 Ingredients: 

  • 1 red bell pepper- chopped
  • 1 yellow bell pepper- chopped
  • 1 orange bell pepper- chopped
  • 1 zucchini- chopped
  • 1 small red onion- thinly sliced 
  • 2 button mushrooms (I usually add more)- sliced 
  • olive oil (for cooking veggies)
  • 2 cans of black beans 
  • 1 can diced tomatoes 
  • 6 cups of vegetable broth
  • 2 tsp cumin
  • 1/2 tsp chili powder
  • 2 tbl lime juice
  • salt to taste
  • avocado- chopped for garnish 
Directions
  1. Heat frying pan over medium heat until hot 
  2. Add chopped vegetables and cook with olive oil until tender (10-15 minutes)
  3. Stir often 
  4. Transfer cooked vegetables to a soup pot and add beans, tomatoes, broth, cumin, chili and lime juice
  5. Add salt to taste
  6. Simmer for 15 minutes
  7. Add avocado over the top

I personally like to eat this the next day because its more flavorful if it sits overnight! Its absolutely delicious and filling but also "light". We love it.
