Cajun Spiced Bean Soup




This is a nourishing and satisfying soup. It uses a package of soup beans that most grocery stores sell this particular one came with a cajun spice pack, that added a lovely kick to it. 



Ingredients:

  • 1/2 a pack of dried beans and 1/2 a pack or one teaspoon of cajun spice mix.
  • 1 cup of chopped kale
  • 1/2 a red onion chopped
  • 3 cloves of garlic chopped
  • 2 small carrots chopped
  • 2 sweet potatoes diced
  • one carton of vegetable stock.
  • 2 stalks of celery diced.

Method:

  1. sauté onions, celery and garlic in olive oil for 5-7 minutes
  2. add the kale little by little to reduce down then add the beans and a liter/ carton of vegetable stock.
  3. boil for 45 min - 60 minutes this takes a while but I am sure they could be pressure cooked to speed this up. 
  4. After about 40 min add the sweet potato and carrot, and spices, allow to boil until the beans and vegetables are soft.
  5. enjoy. 


 We are slowly moving into spring here in North Carolina with a few bright and lovely days but quite a few cold and cloudy ones, so I thought a picture of Florida would be nice and knowing that warmer days are up ahead.
