directions
- Heat olive oil in a soup pot on medium low heat. When hot, add the turkey bacon and onion. Cook until onions start to become transparent, about 3 minutes.
- Add the tomatoes and garlic and cook another 2 minutes, being careful not to burn the garlic.
- Toss in your cumin, chili powder, oregano, and red pepper flake, cooking for about 1 minute.
- Add the beans, Worcestershire sauce, and broth. Allow to simmer on low heat for 15 minutes.
- Once cooked, stir in the cilantro and lime juice. Use an immersion blender or food processor to pulse the soup a few times. You want a slightly blended texture, with some chunks for texture. Salt and pepper to taste. As per usual, take a bite or six to make sure it's just right!
- Top with sour cream, cheese, diced onion, pico, salsa, avocado, rice or whatever tickles your fancy.
