Here is another recipe from Guiding Stars to help you over the holidays when you have overindulged a bit too much. An easy slow cooker meal that will give you that quick fix of veggies that you may be lacking over the holidays if you are eating too many rich and wonderful things.
I know you people that are following me and reading what I have to say are foodies. You love food, crave it and at times over do it. We all do and I can attest to that. “Over do it” is my middle name but I do like to try and eat healthy too. I loved this recipe and so did my family. Try it when you are running around this holiday season but still want a rewarding and wholesome meal. It is made in the slow cooker so you are free to do what you want. It also only takes 5 hours compared to some slow cooker recipes that require 8-9 hours.
This is another great vegan meal, but I have to admit I put the sour cream and a little cheese on top, so it would still be vegetarian.
Happy Holidays!!!

This looks and sounds amazing! And very filling, I might add. I need to bust out my slow cooker more often.

LOOKS SO GOOD, I might give that a try !!
You should give it a try, super easy!!
Hi Tara,
Looks good and healthy. Just wondering . . . those look like kidney beans in the picture, not black beans? Did you change it up? Also wanted to let you know I tried the red velvet crinkle cookies and they were a hit with Maya and at the office yesterday!

No, they are black beans but maybe after cooking for 5 hours with the spices they changed color. Glad you like the cookies. Happy Holidays!!!
Your Black Bean & Corn Soup looks sooo perfect for staying warm and healthy =)
Very much appreciate your recipe, Tara. Thanks to you I’m going to have one happy husband in the house.
