I LOVE this rich and hearty Mexican Bean Soup Recipe. It's the Best Mexican Bean and vegetable soup Recipe, so delicious and easily oil free.
The Authentic flavours will transport you to Mexico, black beans, pinto beans and chick peas, lots of vegetables, earthy spices and bright herbs, simmered in the most AMAZING broth.
Serve it with limes, hot sauce, cilantro, and tortilla chips- OH MY!?
I'm a huge fan of Mexican flavours, and this Easy Mexican Bean Soup Recipe will not disappoint. I whipped this soup up last week on a rainy Thursday, with the help of my 3 year old Granddaughter Belle. She is the best little helper, and loves Mexican food.?
HOW TO MAKE MEXICAN BEAN SOUP (STOVE TOP):
To start add the onions, oil (or broth/water) pinch of salt & pepper to your favourite soup pot (at least 5 qt or bigger), saute on medium heat for a couple of minutes, till onions soften and get a little caramel colour.
Then add your garlic and veggies, cook for 5 minutes or so till slightly softened .
Add in the herbs, spices and give it a stir, then pour in the wine, bouillon paste, nutritional yeast and masa flour. Let simmer for couple of minutes.
Next add the beans and water. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, cover and cook for 25-30 minutes until veggies are tender, Now remove from heat and add 3 big ladles of soup to your Nutra Bullet or blender. Blend until smooth.
Return to pot, stir season with salt & pepper and serve. I like to garnish my soup bowl with a squeeze of lime, chopped cilantro, hot sauce and tortilla chips for dipping. This soup is so Freakin good people! ?
HOW TO MAKE MEXICAN BEAN SOUP (SLOW COOKER VERSION):
If using a slow cooker, follow directions for "stove top version" just saute veggies in a skillet first then add everything to slow cooker, cover. Cook on high for 3-4 hrs or low 5-6 hrs, turn off heat and follow directions for "stove top version".
Ok go check your bean supply and get cooking!

I like to know how I would go about using dry pintos and black beans in this recipe, I have plenty of those that need to be used up 🙂
★★★★★
Verna
Hi Robert you'd have to cook the beans first before making soup. Why don't you try my Charro bean recipe it is made with dried pinto beans. Enjoy!
Brittany Pappas
At what point do we add in the carrots? I don’t see them listed in the steps. Thanks!
Verna
add them in step 2 with the mushrooms and peppers😊 Enjoy!!
Stacie
Could I use more veggie broth instead of using red wine?
Verna
yes you could or add more beer instead? Enjoy Stacie. I recommend trying it with the red wine next time if you have it.
Verna
Yes for sure you could but I recommend trying it with the red wine next time. Enjoy Stacie ?
Lisa
What is the masa flour ? Do I need to buy this or is there something I can substitute ?
The Cheeky Chickpea
Hi Lisa, Masa Harina is finely ground corn flour. It adds an authentic Mexican flavour that I love but you could definitely leave it out?
