Owlie,

That is too much work for soup just for me Also, if I don't puree the black beans, then I can use them for other things if I wish. That being said, this time I did put a couple of cups of beans in the blender and added them back to the soup. I don't normally do that but I felt like it.

L Homemade black bean soup with chicken breast
S: Luna bar

1 hour 15 minutes hard spinning
