Crockpot Texas Black Bean Soup

Given the fact that this recipe includes few fresh ingredients, you might expect it to be less than stellar. But it's really delicious. Next time I'll only use 1T chili as it was very hot. I used 2 cloves of fresh garlic, rather than the dried. I can see no reason why this couldn't be equally good fixed in a pan on the stovetop in less than an hour.

CP Texas Black Bean Soup

(2) 15-oz cans black beans, rinsed and drained
14 1/2 oz can stewed tomatoes or Mexican stewed tomatoes, cut up
14 1/2 oz can diced tomatoes or diced tomatoes with green chiles
14 1/2 oz can chicken broth
11 oz can Mexicorn, drained
(2) 4-oz cans chopped green chiles
4 green onions, thinly sliced
2 to 3 T chili powder
1 t ground cumin
1/2 t dried minced garlic

In a crock pot, combine all ingredients. Cover and cook on HIGH for 4 to 5 hours or until heated through.

Serves 8 to 10. Yields about 2 1/2 quarts.

Sounds delicious! I can't wait to try it out in the TSV crockpot I bought recently; I think the brand name is Ninja.

Sounds good. I make a salad using the same ingredients, but without any liquid in it.

It sounds good - but I would use fresh ingredients instead of all the canned

Re: Crockpot Texas Black Bean Soup

Is it the chili powder that makes it hot or the chiles?

Get your flu shot...because I didn't.

It's the chili powder that makes it hot.

The green chiles don't add any heat unless you buy the can that says ""hot green chiles"". I use the ""mild green chiles"".
