Also known as black bean soup:
2 cans black beans, rinsed
about 1 cup of veggie broth - until the beans are mostly covered
1 medium onion, chopped
14oz (1 can) of diced tomatoes
3 cloves of garlic, minced
1/4 cup lentils
2 tsp cumin
1/4 tsp chili powder
1/2 jalapeno sliced or chopped depending on if you want to be able to pick around the pieces
1 tsp oregano
1 1/2 tsp red wine vinegar
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp salt (more to taste)
Put all ingredients in crock pot on high for 2 hrs. Take out 1/4 to 1/2 of the soup and put in blender or food processor and then return to soup (to thicken).
Note: My crockpot cooks hotter than most, so 3 hrs might be needed. I suspect you could pretty much leave this soup on low all day if you wanted to start it before work.
