Ingredients

    1 pound black beans
    1 pound red potatoes
    1/2 pound baby carrots
    1/2 pound frozen corn (or whatever you have)
    4 green onions, or whatever you have (I like using green onions)
    1/2 t. White pepper (black works!)
    2 Tepin hot peppers (optional, I love the flavor)
    1 t. Sea salt
    1 t. Paprika
    1 t. Cumin
    1 T. Oregano
    2 T. Sweet Basil
    1 t. Marjoram
    1/2 Bay Leaf

Directions

Rinse, sort, and soak beans overnight - drain
Place in a large pot and cover with water plus three inches, turn heat to high
While beans are heating, clean potatoes and carrots, cutting into equal bite-size chunks and adding them to the pot as you go
Do the same with the onions
Use a piece of plastic wrap (I use what the potatoes/carrots came in) to cover your fingers and crush the Tepins as well as you can, put them into the pot.
Add 1/2 of each of the remaining seasonings
Add the bay leaf part, stir
If needed, add water to cover plus at least 1/2 inch, stir
When the mixture begins to boil, turn the heat down to simmer, stir occasionally, add water as needed
As cooking continues, taste seasoning and add other 1/2 of seasonings listed as desired
Stir and taste, adding water until beans are tender

Makes 8 - 10 single servings

Serve with any number of toppings or "as is"
Cheese is good
Butter is excellent
Biscuits are fine!

    Very Good
    How did you know I was soaking beans for soup tomorrow? I actually HAVE everything listed, except for the hot peppers (we don't along). Thanks for a great idea for soup! - 1/21/09
