Blockbuster Vegetarian Crock Pot Black Bean Soup Recipes

Steps:

• Brown meat with onion & celery; drain off fat. Stir in all other ingredients. Add 1 - 2 cups water. Cover & cook on low for 8 - 10 hours in Crock Pot.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, bring the onion, garlic and 1/4 cup broth to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 6-8 minutes or until onion is tender. Stir in the beans, potato, thyme, cumin and remaining broth; return to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 20-25 minutes or until potatoes are tender., Stir in tomatoes and hot pepper sauce; heat through. Sprinkle with green onions.

Steps:

• In a 5- to 8-quart slow cooker, combine the beans, onion, garlic, chipotle chile and sauce, cumin, bay leaves and/or oregano, and baking soda, if using. Add 6 cups of water and 1 teaspoon salt and stir to combine. Cover and cook on low until the beans are tender, 8 to 10 hours. Taste more than one bean to ensure they're all cooked through; they should also flatten without much effort when pressed between your fingers.
• Remove and compost the bay leaves. Transfer the onion, garlic and chipotle chile to a blender or food processor, along with about 2 cups of the beans and broth. (You can purée more or less of the soup, depending on desired consistency.) Blend until smooth. Pour puréed soup back into the slow cooker, stir in the vinegar, then season to taste with salt. Eat with desired toppings.

Steps:

• Soak beans overnight in water to cover.
• If you don't soak the beans overnight:.
• In a large pot over medium heat, place the beans in three times their volume of water.
• Bring to a boil and let boil 10 minutes.
• Cover, remove from heat and let stand 1 hour.
• Drain and rinse.
• In a crock pot, combine soaked beans and 1 1/2 quarts fresh water.
• Cook for 3-7 hours on high, depending on how hot your cooker gets.
• Stir in carrot, celery, onion, garlic, bell pepper, jalapeno, lentils and tomatoes.
• Season with chili powder, cumin, oregano, black pepper, red wine vinegar and salt.
• Cook on low, 2 to 3 hours.
• Stir the rice into the crock pot in the last 20 minutes of cooking (if using brown rice add the last 1 hour).
• Puree half the soup with a blender or food processor, then pour back into the pot before serving.
• Serve with lime wedges, sour cream, and cilantro.
• Enjoy!
