Customize It Instructions

  • Meatlovers! If using protein, cook in a medium non-stick pan over medium heat with 1 tsp. olive oil. If using diced chicken breasts, pat dry. Stir occasionally until chicken reaches minimum internal temperature, 5-7 minutes.

  • If using ground beef, break up until beef reaches minimum internal temperature, 4-6 minutes. Add protein to meal as desired.

  1. 1

    Prepare Ingredients and Make Crema

    Drain black beans.

    Coarsely chop cauliflower into bite-sized pieces.

    Trim and thinly slice green onions, keeping white and green portions separate.

    In a mixing bowl, combine chipotle crema and 1 tsp. water. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Cook the Vegetables

    Place a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil.

    Add white portions of green onions, cauliflower, poblanos (to taste), and fajita seasoning to hot pan. Stir occasionally until browned, 2-3 minutes.

    Add 2 Tbsp. water. Cover, and cook until mostly tender, 3-5 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add the Beans and Salsa

    Add beans, salsa (to taste), mirepoix base, 1/4 tsp. salt, and 1 1/2 cups water to hot pan. Stir to combine, then bring to a simmer.

    While soup cooks, continue recipe.

  4. 4

    Finish the Dish

    In another mixing bowl, combine cornstarch and 1/2 cup water until cornstarch is completely dissolved.

    Once soup is simmering, add cornstarch-water mixture to hot pan. Stir constantly until cornstarch-water mixture is incorporated and soup thickens, 5-7 minutes.

    Remove from burner.
