Beefy Refried Bean Soup Recipe #104715
DO NOT BE FOOLED BY THE TITLE! Your kids, hubby, wifey, and everyone will eat it. I have made triple batches and could not keep it in the house. It's very smooth, and easily eaten by anyone with or without teeth. :) Fights have started over the leftovers.

- Add the oil to a large stock pot and add the chopped vegetables, cooking until soft.

- Stir in the stock (you can use bouillon cubes and omit some of the water to make this as a dip) and bring to a boil.
- Reduce heat and simmer for 30 minutes stirring occasionally.
- Either use a stick blender or small batches into your food processor and puree the soup.
