Black Bean Soup Mix image

I made a gift basket using this soup mix. The idea and recipe are adapted from Diane Phillips's book, The Perfect Mix. I put the jar of black beans, jar of spice mixture, and a jar of California Corn Bread Mix, #72132 into a brightly colored basket along with a reggae music CD. Decorated with colorful ribbon. Looked cool and it made a great gift.

This is a great recipe! I've been making it for years and it's always a crowd-pleaser. I like to add a bit of shredded chicken or ground beef to make it even more hearty.

I made this soup last night and it was delicious! I used a can of diced tomatoes with green chilies instead of the salsa, and I added a bit of cumin and chili powder. It was the perfect comfort food for a cold night.
