I like to use a mix of mushrooms, zucchini, and peas, but you can really add any vegetables you like.
Just be sure to chop them into bite-sized pieces so they cook through evenly.

This allows the rice to absorb all the flavor from the broth and results in a creamy, dreamy risotto.
Trust me, it’s worth the effort.
This dish is perfect for a cozy night in or for entertaining guests.
Serve it topped with a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese and a sprig of fresh thyme.

Just like with the white bean soup, this dish is packed with flavor, but is also hearty and filling thanks to the beans.
The great thing about black bean soup is that it’s incredibly easy to make, and can be tailored to your liking.
I like to add a little bit of spice to mine, but you can make it as mild or as spicy as you like.
Texture-wise, this soup is thick and creamy, thanks again to the beans.
And as an added bonus, it’s also super healthy.
One of the best things about making soup in a crockpot is that you can pretty much set it and forget it.
