Ingredients
Bob's Red Mill 13 Bean Soup Mix1 tsp. olive oil1 cup red onion, chopped2 tsp. minced garlic3 large carrots, chopped2 stalks celery, chopped2 medium red potatoes, cubed2.25 quarts water4 tsp. Better Than Bouillon Vegetable Base1 28oz. can crushed tomatoes (unsweetened)4 oz. spinach1 tbsp. chili powder1/8 tsp. salt1/4 tsp pepperCayenne pepper to taste (optional)
Directions
Soak beans overnight, rinse and drain.

In a large pot, use olive oil and a little water to saute onion and garlic until onion is tender. Add carrot, celery, and potatoes and cook until carrot begins to soften. Add water and beans. Bring to a boil and add Better Than Bouillon. Reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook for 2 hours, stirring occasionally.

Add crushed tomatoes, spinach, chili powder, salt and pepper. Simmer for another 20-30 minutes. For a thicker soup, simmer uncovered to allow some water to evaporate.

For a little extra kick, add a small amount of cayenne pepper (for a bowl of soup, you probably need no more than a tiny sprinkling.)

Makes approximately 24 1-cup servings.

This is the first recipe I've ever made up. What do you guys think?
