Vegan Mexican Black Bean and Cabbage Soup

Vegan Mexican Black Bean and Cabbage Soup Recipe

I love the combination of cabbage and black beans. My toddler will eat any kind of bean, so this is a great way to sneak in protein and colorful veggies! Feel free to vary the vegetable combination based on what you like, or have on hand. This is a great soup for meatless Mondays. Serve topped with shredded cheddar, and warmed corn tortillas.
