VAL'S PORK & BEAN SOUP Recipe; Fortuna-AZ

Last night we had pork chops - there were leftovers … so, this morning I made soup with them ;-)

This is an impromptu recipe; this is my own recipe, put together from things I had on hand.

VAL'S PORK & BEAN SOUP; Fortuna-AZ

1 cup dry Black Beans * 1 lb. leftover Pork, cooked * 4 cups Water * 1/4 cup Kahlua coffee liqueur * 1 large Garlic clove, minced * 1 medium White Onion, sliced * 1 Green Bell Pepper, chopped * 2 stalks Celery, sliced thin * 2 Carrots, sliced thin * 1 cup Mushrooms (of your choice) * 1 Bay Leaf * 1/2 TBSP. dry Oregano leaves * 1/2 tsp. Cumin * 1/2 tsp. Cayenne

Place everything into a slow cooker crockpot & set to HIGH; cook for 4 to 6 hours.

Veggies & mushroom's.

Set to cook on HIGH for 4 to 6 hours.

Food is my {medicine}, so I try to cook as organic & effectively as possible: that can be a little challenging living in a 5th-wheel full -time; but we've been able to tap into fresh veggies stands while in AZ & that has been beneficial.

And Holland is liking the dishes ;-)
