Slow Cooker Black Bean and Hamburger Soup image

This soup is simple, comforting and inexpensive. I make mine with homemade chili powder made from dried habaneros so mine is pretty spicy - if you are using a milder chili powder you might consider adding additonal cayenne pepper. You can also substitute cajun seasoning for the chili powder. You could also do this on the stovetop - just brown the hamburger add all the rest of the ingredients and simmer until the beans are tender.

Time 8h15m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 lb dried black beans
1 lb lean ground beef
6 cups beef broth
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 1/2 teaspoons dried basil
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Steps:

  • Brown the hamburger meat, drain the fat and place the meat into a slow cooker.
  • Add the beans, seasonings and broth. (You can soak the beans before if desired - I never do!).
  • Cook on low for around 8 hours or until the beans are tender, adding water or additional broth as needed. I usually need to add about 2 cups of water as the beans cook and soak up the liquid.
