BLACK BEAN AND SMOKED SAUSAGE SOUP



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.

Tips:

  • Add some spices to the soup to give it a flavorful kick. Some good options include chili powder, cumin, paprika, and garlic powder.
  • Use a good quality smoked sausage. This will make a big difference in the flavor of the soup. Look for a sausage that is made with 100% pork and that has a good smoky flavor.
