This heartier version of black bean soup gets added protein with the addition of shredded pork.
Yield: 8 servings
Ingredients:
1 pound dried black beans, rinsed and picked over
2 bone-in center-cut pork chops (about 1 1/4 lb)
2 slices bacon, chopped
1 onion, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 tablespoon chopped canned chipotle chilies in adobo plus 1 Tbsp. adobo sauce
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
Preparation:
Combine 6 cups water, beans, pork chops, bacon, onion, garlic, chilies, adobo, cumin and salt in slow cooker. Cook on low until beans are tender and pork chops are falling apart, 4 to 6 hours.
Remove and discard bacon. Cut pork away from bones. Discard bones and shred meat. Add meat back to slow cooker with beans. Season with additional salt and serve.

It doesn't need salt if you use the right amount of spices. One of the spices, I'd add is ginger as that uh uh helps relieve/prevent gas. :)

Actually sounds pretty good even though I'm not the biggest fan of black beans! Thanks.

I have made black bean soup with out the meat in it. As long as you have the other stuff and spices it is really good.

Would probably add some hot peppers to this in addition to the adobos
