I finally did it! I finally put up my Christmas tree. It’s gorgeous! I forgot to take a picture of it to post it here but I will. I know some of you may think it’s early but not for me. I actually meant to do mine last weekend but didn’t get a chance.

So before I talk about today’s recipe I just wanted to tell you all that starting next week I’m going to do 12 days of Christmas cookies. I was baking for you all yesterday all day long and have got a collection of amazing and delicious cookies that you will want to make this Christmas for your friends and family. You will love them, I promise you, so come and back and check them out.

Now as promised this month I will also share with you a couple more crockpot recipes so here is a great one, a country sausage and bean soup. It’s so freaking easy, I can’t even tell you how much I love my slow cooker. I was able to make this yesterday as I was baking all those cookies, that’s how easy it is. Now I made mine so spiiiiicy because I accidentally put a lot of Sriracha sauce in there, so unless you like it really hot, do as I specified in the recipe, a teaspoon is probably all you need. The flavors in this soup are so intense, those black beans are so yummy and not to mention the sausage. I left my sausage a little chunkier because I like to have something to bite into. You’ll love this soup. Now I didn’t mention this in the recipe, but I love to sprinkle some shredded cheddar on my soup, or some sour cream, so much better this way for me.

    I really liked this–by cooking the meat later you avoid that “drowned meat” flavor that crockpot meat can have. It also allowed me to drain some broth out of the beans so it had just the amount of soup liquid I wanted. Thank you!

    I have everything but the black beans. Can I substitute with one can of pinto bean and one can of chili bean? Never cooked with beans before or sausage. So this would be a great recipe to use. I was going to carmelize some large cut yellow onion in oil curry and basil with the meat and throw in some also use mushrooms and jalapeños. Will those be to much with the siracha though? Too spicy isn’t a problem.
    I was just not sure how to work the beans into it so I was looking for a recipe similar to my ingredients and this is the closest I could find. Please answer. Need help bad!

    I assume the tomatoes are added near the end so as not to mess with the beans while they are cooking????? Love all your recipes!

    When you say sausages do you mean in their casings? That’s the only way we get them and I don’t think removing them would give me what you get.

      Yes in their casings, I used 4 sausage links. 🙂
