SLOW-COOKER CUBAN BLACK BEAN SOUP
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!

CUBAN BLACK BEAN SOUP
Using a blender, this soup becomes a smooth, nutritious heart-warmer just right for those cool nights. If the soup is too thick, add a little more vegetable broth to thin it out.-Tracy Lohr, Urbandale, Iowa

CUBAN BLACK BEAN SOUP
I got this recipe from the Bob's Red Mill website, and it is awesome! I adjusted the sequence and ingredients a bit to suit me. It's my favorite Black Bean recipe so far, and I've tried a half dozen over the last few weeks, looking for just the right taste. This one has it! Serve it over cooked brown rice or cooked kasha and bulgur wheat for more fiber. You can use vegetable stock instead of chicken if desired.

CUBAN BLACK BEAN SOUP
Chef Douglas Rodriguez of DeLaCosta restaurant in Chicago was born in America, but this recipe is inspired by his mother's black bean soup, which offered robust flavor for people who didn't have money to spend on meat for stock. Here we use both fresh and dried oregano because each imparts a different flavor to the final dish. The ham is listed in the ingredients but since I have always made my black bean without "meat" I made it that way again. This was in Cooking Light, 01/01/2008! Just another take on black beans that I think are great!! Cuban cooking reflects the influence of Spain and Africa as well as other Caribbean countries. Spicy heat is not as pronounced in Cuban cuisine as in other Latin fare.

It really is best if the beans are soaked overnight.And depending on your cooker, the soup might need to be cooked longer.
