Ingredients

3	cups	black beans	sorted and rinsed
6	cups	water
7	cups	stock
1	can	tomatoes	including liquid, cut in pieces
2	cups	celery	chopped
1	each	carrot	large chopped
1	each	onion	large chopped
4	each	garlic cloves	large minced
2	each	bay leaves
1	teaspoon	basil
1	teaspoon	oregano
1/2	teaspoon	marjoram
1 1/2	tablespoons	lemon juice
5 1/2	tablespoons	sherry

Directions

Soak the black beans in the 6 cups of water overnight in a large pot. Drain the soaking water and refill soup pot with the 7 cups of ff chicken broth (you can also use vegetable broth) then add and cook for 2-2 1/2 hours until beans are soft the tomatoes, celery, carrot, onion, garlic, bay leaves, oregano, basil, marjoram then add the lemon juice, sherry and apple cider vinegar to taste for a sharper flavor.

Salt & pepper to taste. Now I have not tried this yet but I think that I would add the tomatoes after the beans were soft. Then remove the bay leaves and blend soup in food processor or blender. Return to soup pot and reheat and serve garnishing each bowl with 1/2- 1 T of nonfat sour cream & 1/2 teaspoon chives or green onion tops.

Almond Biscotti

I tried this recipe for almond biscotti last night and my husband has devoured half the batch already! He is of Danish descent and loves anything with almond flavoring but I think the raw chopped almonds and brandy were the "secret" ingredients that won him over. This recipe is definitely a keeper!
