I'm not a huge fan of black beans, but this soup was surprisingly good. The flavors were really well-balanced and the soup was very hearty and filling. I would definitely make it again.

This soup is a great way to use up leftover black beans. It's also a really affordable and healthy meal. I like to add a bit of spice to mine with a pinch of cayenne pepper.

This was my first time making black bean soup and it turned out great! The soup was thick and creamy, and the flavors were well-balanced. I will definitely be making this again.

I've made this soup several times and it's always a hit. It's so flavorful and satisfying, and the perfect comfort food for a cold winter day. I like to serve it with a side of crusty bread or cornbread.

This slow-cooked black bean soup is a lifesaver on busy weeknights. It's so easy to throw all the ingredients in the crock pot in the morning and come home to a delicious, hearty soup that the whole family loves. I like to add a dollop of sour cream
