For this easy black bean soup for two, canned black beans are partially blended for a creamy base. This is a comforting soup for days when you don't want to spend hours in the kitchen. Feel free to add diced ham for a heartier soup, or to garnish with shredded cheese and salsa.

Matzo Ball Soup
This matzo ball soup is so rich and flavorful, there's no reason to wait until Passover to enjoy it! This recipe has been in our Jewish family for generations. Some family members say it started with our great-great-grandmother Bubbie Rose. My husband (her great-great-grandson) has put his own twist on it by adding extra vegetables and fresh dill which we think sets this soup apart from the rest.
