1
To roast corn: It is convenient to use frozen corn. Preheat oven to 350. Spread frozen corn on a cookie sheet and roast in oven for 15 to 20 minutes stirring occasionally. Remove from oven and cool.

Heat oil in a large stock pot over medium-high heat.
3
Add onions and celery and saute until translucent, about 5 to 7 minutes.
4
Add garlic and saute for one more minute.
5
Carefully pour in stock and scrape the bottom of the pan to release any brown bits.
6
Stir in the black bean soup mix and tomatoes.
7
Add the butternut squash and roasted corn.
8
Add herbs, stir, and bring to a boil.
9
Once boiling, reduce to a simmer, cover with a lid and cook for 1 1/2 hours, stirring every 1/2 hour to prevent sticking.
10
Add more stock or water if beans and squash absorb too much liquid.
