Lower heat to medium and cook, stirring every few minutes, until vegetables soften, about 6 to 8 minutes.
Add all the seasonings,and then the drained black beans, stir the beans with the vegetables and seasonings.
Add the stewed tomatoes with their juices, stir and then add 5 cups of broth.
Bring the soup to a boil, reduce heat and let the soup simmer for 15 to 20 minutes.
Taste soup and adjust seasonings.
If desired, you can purée part of the soup in your blender and return it to the pot. If soup is too thick, add one more cup of broth to thin out soup.
