Place all ingredients in a blender, and blend until smooth. Heat and serve. Alternatively, you can place the whole ingredients in a sauce pan and blend with an immersion blender.

It’s that easy!

Recipe notes:

• I typically use cheddar cheese, but have used many different kinds with great results – including pepper-jack.
• In my opinion, great northern beans are the best because they blend smoother than navy beans – but again, you can use whatever you like
• home-cooked beans are better in this case (and cheaper!) than canned beans because again, they blend more smoothly
• If you make a bulk batch of this, be aware that it’s difficult to get larger volumes smooth with the stick blender (see pic above).
