Spicy Black-and-Red Bean Soup
from Cooking Light
Geoff and I had this tonight, and it was really good. We did it in the slow cooker, on low for about 12 hours. The carrots and corn weren't totally mushy, which I liked; perhaps if I'd actually followed the directions they wouldn't have been.
Cooking spray
1 1/2 cups chopped onion
1 1/4 cups sliced carrot
2 garlic cloves, minced
3 cups fat-free, less-sodium chicken broth
2 teaspoons sugar
1 (16-ounce) package frozen shoepeg white corn
1 (15-ounce) can red beans or kidney beans, drained
1 (15-ounce) can black beans, drained
1 (14.5-ounce) can Mexican-style stewed tomatoes with jalapeño peppers and spices, undrained (I used diced tomatoes with jalapenos)
1 (14.5-ounce) can no-salt-added diced tomatoes, undrained
1 (4.5-ounce) can chopped green chiles
Place a large Dutch oven coated with cooking spray over medium-high heat until hot. Add onion, carrot, and garlic; sauté 5 minutes. Stir in broth and remaining ingredients; bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 2 hours.
To use a slow cooker, combine everything in the pot, and cook on HIGH for the first hour; then turn the temperature down to LOW, and cook 7 more hours.
