SPICY BLACK BEAN SOUP (SLOW COOKER)

Steps:

• For black beans either: 1) soak overnight and then drain/rinse before adding to slow cooker OR 2) combine with vegetable broth and bring to a rolling boil for 15-30 minutes before adding to slow cooker (broth and beans).
• Combine beans, jalapeños, corn, and vegetable broth in a slow cooker.
• Season with garlic powder, chili powder, cumin, cayenne, pepper, and hot pepper sauce.
• Cook on low for 8-10 hours.
• **I used an immersion hand-blender to roughly puree the soup before serving. This gave it a little thicker texture. You could also serve "as is" or puree in a food processor.
