There are several BBS recipes but this one is slightly different and my family's favorite. Made in the slowcooker.

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 medium yellow onion, chopped
1 carrot, chopped
1/2 green bell pepper, chopped
3 -4 garlic cloves, minced
2 (15 1/2 ounce) cans black beans, drained and rinsed
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained

2 bay leaves
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon dried thyme

salt
fresh ground pepper
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • In a large skillet, let the oil heat over medium heat.

  • Transfer veggie mixture to a 4-6 quart slowcooker.

  • Cover and cook on LOW for 8 hours.
  • Remove and throw away bay leaf; adjust seasonings to taste.
  • Add in lemon juice right before you are ready to serve.
  • To thicken soup, puree about 2 cups (or up to one-half) of soup solids by using an immersion blender right in the cooker or take out soup solids and tranfer to a blender or food processor; return puree to slow-cooker.
