Beef & Black Bean Soup

I'm not a spicy person, but I thought this would be! Actually it was way to calm, not spicy at all! I like the ingredients, so I think I'll change up the spices and give it a second chance.
I used ground turkey seasoned with black pepper, cajun, & all purpose seasonings. I didn't use the sugar. I didn't add the cooked rice to the pot so it could be optional added to individual soup bowls. I only used 1/4 tsp cumin. Was excellent!
Tasty, but needs so more spices in my opinion.
Delicious! I put this in the slow cooker and my girls ate it for dinner and supper. My husband was gone and asked me to save some for him. There was none left.
This is a long-time family favorite. It is easily modified for both vegetarian and vegan lifestyles, and substituting whole grain wild rice makes it an even healthier "warm up from the inside" meal.

This is a great soup recipe. I have made many times. I also made with veg broth for my vegetarian girls.
