Black Bean and Smoked Sausage Soup image

I can easily make this after work, even if I have to prep everything from scratch. The original recipe was adapted from a Better Homes and Gardens Cookbook. It called for 1 lb of dried black beans but for us, canned works best on a weeknight. I've used either 2 or 3 cans of beans, it depends on how thick you like your bean soup. I think the coriander and sherry are the key to it's taste.

This was my first time making this soup and it turned out great! I was worried it would be too spicy, but it was just right. I will definitely be making this again.

This soup was a little bland for my taste. I added some extra spices and it helped, but it still wasn't as flavorful as I had hoped.

This soup was a hit at my last potluck! I made a few substitutions based on what I had on hand, and it turned out great! I used ground turkey instead of smoked sausage, and added some chopped carrots and celery. I also used a can of diced tomatoes wi
