Directions:
Place the chipotle pepper, adobo sauce and 1 cup of vegetable broth in a blender and blend until smooth; set aside.
In a large dutch oven, heat the oil on medium heat. Add the onions and sauté for 3 minutes. Add the garlic and continue to sauté for an additional 3 minutes. Then, add in the green chilies, cumin, chili powder, and salt. Scrape the bottom of the pan for any brown bits. Add in the chipotle broth, remaining 2 cups of vegtable broth, black beans, cilantro, and salsa. Allow the soup to come to a boil, cover and reduce heat to low and allow the soup to simmer for 35 minutes.
Add in the lime juice. Transfer ⅓ of the soup to a blender and careful blend the soup holding down the lid with a towel. Add back into the dutch oven and stir. If you want a smooth texture, blend all of the soup. For a chunkier texture leave as is. Serve with diced avocados and additional cilantro. For non-vegans, serve with sour cream.
