In a soup pot saute the onion, garlic, celery, carrot and jalapeno in the oil for about 5 minutes. Add the chili powder, cumin, oregano, and 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook for an additional 7 or 8 minutes. Add the beans, broth, and bay leaf and simmer, covered, stirring occasionally, until soup is slightly thickened, about 10 to 15 minutes.
Remove about 2 cups of the soup and puree it (our use an immersion blender for just a minute or so, making sure not to puree everything) and add it back to the soup pot. Add the jicama and cook for 5 minutes, remove the bay leaf and season with salt and pepper and serves.
