I decided to go away from the major protein punch tonight and feature black beans for the protein. While it’s still cooler out in most areas, this kickstart soup works great for lunch or dinner.

No culinary experience. Watched a lot of Food Shows, and just enjoy cooking new things. I’m trucker, so most of my meals are made when I am home. I dabble in both my own creations as well as sharing some of the best from other recipes such as HelloFresh and online searches. Presentation, obviously, is all me.
