Black Bean and Pumpkin Soup

By devogirl

Instead of using 3 cans of black beans, I used a whole package of dried black beans. Put in a crock pot over night with 6 cups of water (I believe it was). Cook on high for one hour and then low over night. Easy!

Maybe next time play with putting 2 cans of pumpkin in?
