Info Post
Southwestern Three Bean Soup is one of the simplest soups I make. Less than 30 minutes from start to finish and this soup is comprised entirely from items that I keep on hand in my pantry. I've been making this for a while now and we really enjoy it.

This is my baby's favorite soup. He eats a good amount of it every time I make it. I actually keep small bowls of it in the freezer, just for him. It has a mild southwestern flavor with very little heat. My husband and oldest son always add some sriracha or other hot sauce to their own bowls to provide the heat that they love. If you have a family of spice lovers, increase the green chile and chile powder to provide the soup with more of a kick.
