Thanks for sharing this Scott. I love black beans. I've never been to Panera but this sure sounds delicious.

Black Bean Soup ( like Panera Bread's)

This is a version of Panera Bread's black bean soup. It tastes a lot like it. Use vegetable stock to make it vegetarian.
1 onion, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 celery ribs, finely chopped
1/4 large red bell pepper, finely chopped
2 small chicken bouillon cubes
1-1 1/2 cup boiling water
2 (15 ounce) cans black beans, undrained
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1/2 lemon, juice of
1 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch
In a pot, combine the first six ingredients; simmer for 10 minutes.
Add half a can of beans, salt and cumin; cook for 5 minutes.
Puree soup (I use an immersion blender which makes it easy to do it right in the pot).
Add the rest of the beans to the soup. Combine the cornstarch with 1 1/2 tablespoons of water.
Add the lemon and the cornstarch to the soup; cook until thickened.
