In contrast to my previous post, this takes about 10 minutes to throw together and requires very few ingredients--you probably have most of them in your pantry right now! The chipotles freeze well for the next time you need them.
2 Tbsp olive oil
1 medium red or white onion, diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 tsp crushed red pepper (optional)
1 tsp cumin
3 cans black beans, only 1 rinsed and drained
2 chipotles in adobo sauce (depending on how hot you want it)
1 cup salsa, Chipotle flavor if you really want to bump up the sweet/smoky flavor
Top with cheese, sour cream or cilantro
Serve with tortilla chips
1. Heat oil in a large pot. Saute the onions, garlic, red pepper, and cumin until the onions are soft.
2. Meanwhile, puree two of the cans of beans (with liquid) and chipotles in a blender until smooth. Rinse and drain the other can of beans and set aside.
3. When the onions are soft, add the pureed beans, whole beans, salsa, and some of the adobo sauce (to taste). If it is too thick, add a little broth or water.
4. Bring to a simmer and serve.

I will definately make this one...do you feel like the end result is very spicy due to the chipoltes? Just wondering if we could get James to try some.
Gabriel loves this so much he usually doesn't even comment on the heat. I always add a big dollop of sour cream or plain yogurt to his (and mine, for that matter) to cool it down a bit. You can always start with one pepper and add a little of the adobo sauce to yours if you want a little more spice.
