Refried Bean Soup

CreamyThis time of year I need quick, easy and comforting meals. My family is so busy with the holidays that I often don’t have a ton of time to cook (or even the desire to).

So making soups is perfect. It’s super easy to make a pot which will last at least two meals, and sometime an extra lunch. But most of the time I get caught up in the same old chicken soup (which don’t get me wrong is delish… but occationally you need a change).

My husband I and I grew up in Arizona and then moved to Southern California a few years after college. So Mexican food has always been a huge part of our lives. I probably cook some sort of Mexican dish at least once a week.

So this Refried Bean Soup totally agrees with our taste buds. It’s a little spicy and creamy. Top it with cheese and serve with a few tortillas on the side and you have a great comfort meal!

And RO*TEL and Rosarita from my local Walmart makes this recipe easy to put together and serve to my family. By using these ConAgra products and other fresh carrots, celery and onions, dinner can be a snap.

Here are the easy steps for putting it together:

1. Head to your local Walmart to pick up RO*TEL and Rosarita, your fresh produce and all the other ingredients.

    Just found this soup, had to try. Was very good. Only thing I did different, was add some ground turkey in the second step. Living on soups right now and I believe this is a keeper. Thank you.
