With its black beans and corn, this recipe could just as easily have been called Santa Fe Minestrone. But whatever you call it, it is a sensational soup and makes a filling meatless meal. Perfect for cool days and probably even warm ones. The flavor is wonderful and it's so easy to make! This recipe comes fro m BH&G's "Better Than Mom's Slow Cooker Recipes."

This does make a filling meatless dish that could be easily vegetarian by using vegetable broth in place of chicken. I used a full can of green beans that had been drained and rinsed as that was what was on hand and preferred it topped with shredded cheese in place of the sour cream. I will keep this recipe on stand-by to make again during the winter ahead. Made for *My 3 Chefs*
