Cuban Black Bean Soup

It looks like a lot of ingredients, but the second half of the ingredients list is optional toppings. I just use whatever I have on hand, cilantro, sour cream, cheese, whatever!

This is a super yummy, super easy, super cheap soup. It freezes well, and the "toppings" idea makes it great for a crowd... everyone can customize their own soup!

If you make it from dried beans, it takes a while to simmer. But there's almost no work in making this soup.
