MEXICAN BLACK BEAN SOUP
This soup is a mixture of two recipes that I have for black bean soup. I love the flavor and it is great by itself or as an addition to a Mexican dinner. This recipe uses canned black beans so there is no soaking them overnight and you can also use a slow cooker so you can leave the house while it thickens. I have also added cooked, cubed chicken breast or shredded pork roast to make it even more hardy.
