Spiced Tomato Soup with Pinto Beans
Posted in: Food Photos, Lunch Ideas, Soup/Stew Ideas, Vegetarian Ideas | 8 Comments
I had a hankering for soup. Sure, I could have just grabbed a can of condensed soup from the pantry but where’s the fun in that?!? :)
Instead, I took an old time favorite, tomato soup and made it into a satisfying meal by adding a few additional ingredients and spices.
Speaking of… Did you see my A Super Seven Spice Giveaway! :)
- 1 10 3/4 oz condensed tomato soup (preferably low sodium or healthy request)
- 1 tomato soup can of water
- 1 15oz can of diced tomatoes (with green chillies would be tasty!)
- 1 15oz can of pinto beans drained and rinsed
- 1 tsp chili powder
- 1 tsp dried cilantro
- 1/2 tsp cumin
- About 2 cups baby spinach loosely chopped
Mix all ingredients except the spinach in a pot over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil then lower the heat to medium and cook for 5 minutes allowing all the flavors to mix.
Turn off the heat. Add the baby spinach and remove from heat. Stir in the spinach and it should wilt in a few seconds.
Serve!

That looks delicious. So much better than a can of soup straight from the pantry!
Yum! Can’t wait to try this!
Mmmm….mmmm….good!
I really love how the soup looks in the white dish….looks beautiful and yummy too!
Ooo, you used my beloved green chilies! Green Chilies in anything=good :-)
I was just looking for a simply tasty soup! I love your site and love that you put the nutrition content on here too! I recently lost 35 pounds and am working on the next 40 – so – getting new fun healthy recipes is the perfect endurance kicker I need!
I recently found a book on fiber and it’s benefits – and realized that I have been lacking in that department – so I am thrilled to see this recipe has 10 grams per 2 cups! I am thinking of adding chicken to it so the protein goes up – but boy does this look tasty!
Thanks again – and keep your creative juices flowing! :O)
The baby spinach is what does it for me with these photos! Looks sooo delicious and although it’s almost 4am right now I’m going crazy for this soup! Cheers~
Made this – LOVED it. So did hubby. Keep the recipes coming!
