Slow-Cooker Cuban Black Bean Soup image

This all-day slow-cooker recipe isn't your average bean soup-it's wildly flavorful and extra hearty, and we'd bet it'll become your favorite on the first try. The secret is in cooking the beans with a bone-in ham shank that infuses flavor into every bite. The key to getting the perfect consistency, mashing the beans, is a can't-skip step that's super easy. Finish your bowl with the toppings of your choice, like pico de gallo, sour cream, avocado or a squeeze of lime juice, and prepare to be impressed!
