Hearty Black Bean Soup
As the temperatures begin to drop and we welcome the winter with glove covered hands and our most stylish umbrellas, there is nothing that cures the cold better than a good hearty, warm soup. Enjoy this black bean soup curled up on the couch with your beau and a movie or at your desk as you tie up loose ends and projects before the holidays. It’s a great recipe for those busy Stylust women, or for those that cooking is not their forte as it is super simple (really just a matter of tossing all the ingredients together and blending).
