I am still looking for low fat, vegan soup options for our two 'fasting' days. I combined two different recipes, that I found out on the intertubes and the results were WONDERFUL, you have the black beans with a with savory spices and big chunks of sweet potato that add a subtle nutty, sweetness. It's hearty enough to stick with you for a while. About The Beans : this recipe uses one whole pound of black beans. I made them from dried beans, because I had the time and it's no big deal, they take approximately a couple hours ( pick through for small stones, add a tsp of salt, cover with water, bring them to a boil and remove from heat, soak for an hour, then cook until they are tender - black beans take about 30 - 40 minutes). You don't don't have to babysit them, which makes it easy if you work-from-home. One pound of dried beans yields about 6 - 7 cups of cooked beans. If you don't care to cook your own beans, use three 15-oz cans of canned black bean
