How To Make spicy triple bean soup

  • Step 1
    Slice breakfast sausages into 1/2" slices and brown in a kettle, about half way through the browning process, add the chopped red pepper, onion and minced garlic, cook until tender.
  • Step 2
    Add the beans and mix well, add the chicken broth and the remaining ingredients except the spices. Mix until all ingredients are incorporated. Now add the spices.
  • Step 3
    Bring to a boil and then lower to a simmer for 20 to 25 minutes to allow the flavors to blend. Or for crockpot directions, do step one, add to crockpot and remaining ingredients, except spices, mix well to incorporate the ingredients and then add the spices. Cook on high for 1 1/2 hours or on low for 2 1/2 to 3 hours. Serve with tortilla shells, garnish with cheddar cheese and sliced green onion tops.

    Note: I made my own tortilla shells but you can use store bought.
