I made this today for a luncheon with my friends and everyone loved it! The only changes I made were to use vegetable broth to make it vegetarian, and used 1/2 the jalapenos which was plenty. I also used my hand blender to blend it at the end to make it thick. Delicious! Everyone loved it.

This was great, though I did used less jalapeno and less cayenne, based on our taste.

I have never made black bean soup before so I am not sure if I did something wrong. While I like extremely spicy food the cayenne pepper was way too much. There was nothing tasty about this soup.

Good base recipe. Here are the changes I made: - Puree half the beans after slow cooking - Mix one tablespoon corn starch in a 1/4 cup of cooled soup - One small can tomato paste (helps soup thickness) - 2 tbsp worthesire(sp?) sauce Serve topped with diced cilantro, tortilla chips and sour cream.

I would give this recipe more stars if it weren't for the extreme heat level of it even after I cut back on the chili powder. I like spicy food but this was too much, however it was great with added cooked rice and leftover shredded beef from a "shredded beef for tacos" recipe I found on AP. I did use canned black beans (some of those pureed like another reviewer suggested). I had a lot of Cilantro in it also which my husband thought I added too much of, but I loved the dish and so did all of our six children. Thanks for the recipe.

This a really good base for a great soup. I added about a half cup of diced onions and a half pound of bacon that I had browned in a skillet together. An imersion blender used lightly gives it a more authentic touch I think.

This is a very good soup to add to one's recipe collection. I did cut back on the heat and it still had a good flavor. I also, used my immersion blender to give the soup a little more thickness. Too top of the soup I added a dollop of sour cream, a sprinkle of cheese and served it with cheese-its.

I am a HUGE black bean soup fan, but this one just did not do it for me. I followed the recipe exactly, but the beans were never softened (for future cooks, be sure to boil the beans, even though the bag directions do not tell you to). Even after running the soup through with the immersion blender, it was still WAY too runny for our tastes.

This was delicious. Modifications: 3 cans beans, 1 can diced tomato, 1 can chicken broth, 1 pkg taco seasoning, 1/2 lb ground beef, 1 chopped onion, 1 can diced green chilies, 1 teaspoon jalapeno pepper. Added all to crockpot. Followed the hint to blend 1/2 the soup to make creamier. Topped with sprinkling of cheddar. Will definitely make this again and wasn't too spicy.

Very good, not too spicy. I added onion - everything tastes better with onion!! I also used my immersion blender to thicken it up a bit. Would make it again on a cold winter day.

My husband thought this was very good. It is very spicy, so beware. I'm a mild to medium salsa kinda gal and found this far too hot for me.

As my husband well said "This soup kick butt. With numchucks!" I made a few changes to accommodate my supplies on hand. I had to use up some tomatoes pronto so I put in 2 chopped romas. Also, I had a 1/2 lb of ground pork that I threw in. Didn't have cayenne so I added a few more dashes of hot sauce. I deseeded two of the four peppers to reduce the heat a little (my poor sister STILL thought it was too spicy!! I thought it was perfect). I also used fresh garlic instead of the garlic powder. Served up with chopped cilantro, diced onion, and irish cheddar cheese. SOOOOO yummy. Enjoy!

This was really cheap, easy and delicious! I added about 1 cup of leftover refried black beans, which helped thicken the soup a bit. Note that black beans don't need to be soaked overnight, just boil them for 10 minutes before adding them to the slow cooker with everything else.

Taste was pretty good on this soup, but I think that next time I will probably add some smoked sausage to make it a little more substantial.
