    This soup is very tasty and filling .I too used frozen corn as it is less sweet. Next time I will add chopped celery with the onion. - 12/8/08

    This is the best black bean soup I have ever tasted! I had a little left over pork loin so I chopped that up and threw it in. I also didn't puree anything except the beans. I used tomatoes and corn that I grew and preserved instead of canned varieties.
    I will make this over and over again. - 1/23/21

    Very tasty! I used a pound of dry black beans and soaked overnight, rinsed. Then cooked everything in the crockpot. Added half of a poblano pepper because I had that to use up in the fridge. I also added a can of diced tomatoes along with the 10oz can of the tomato/green chili ingredient. - 5/18/20
