It’s a rainy Sunday, and that had me hankering to get out the slow cooker. This Spicy Slow Cooker Black Bean Soup – Allrecipes fit the bill nicely. With a few modifications, it’s currently simmering away on high, to be enjoyed this evening:
Mods:
- Instead of garlic powder, used 5 cloves minced garlic
- Chopped 1/2 onion
- 1 Tbsp. tomato paste
- 1 Tbsp. marinara sauce
- 1 tsp. lemon juice (helps keep the bean skins intact)
- A bit more chili powder and cumin than called for
- 1 tsp. chili flakes
- Half beef stock, half chicken stock
- 1 Tbsp. homemade roasted tomatillo salsa
