This hearty crockpot soup is easy to make and delicious!

Ingredients:

2 (15 oz.) cans small red beans, drained and rinsed
1 (15 oz.) can corn, drained
3/4 cup brown rice
1 medium onion, finely chopped
1 1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp cayenne powder
6 cups vegetable broth
1 tomato, chopped

Steps:

Add other can of beans and can of corn. Then add brown rice.
Pour in vegetable broth.

When I saw this yesterday morning it looked SO good, so I decided to make it. I used what I had on hand, so instead of using vegetable broth I used home canned turkey broth. This was AMAZING! DH loved it. Thanks so much for posting it!

This sounds delicious, economical and healthy so I can't wait to make it tonight. In fact, it looks too hearty to be a mere soup (almost like a stew or porridge), and can make an entire meal with the addition of some protein. I plan to add a little meat, or if I want to stay vegetarian, some tofu (I prefer extra firm).

Two suggestions:
1) Please put in the serving amount this makes. It's hard to guess since the rice expands and a lot of the liquid evaporates
2) Consider omitting the photos, except for the finished product. None are essential (they don't show a technique) but they waste a lot of ink when printing the recipe. They're great for viewing online though. Too bad the website doesn't allow us to print without photos.

Thanks for the recipe.
