Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 cups ham cut in about 1/2” dice, cubed
  • 5 cups water
  • 15 ounces black beans drained and rinsed, canned
  • 6 cloves garlic minced
  • ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes crushed
  • ½ teaspoon fennel seeds
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1 cup parsley chopped, fresh
  • 29 ounces diced tomatoes 2 cans, canned with juice
  • 2 cups brown rice cooked
  • 1 chicken bouillon cube crushed (recommended: Maggi brand)
  • ¾ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper ground
  • ¼ teaspoon Accent optional, MSG seasoning brand
  • red onion for serving, diced

Instructions

  1. Add the olive oil to a large soup pot over medium high heat. Cook the cubed ham until it just begins to brown. Add the remaining ingredients. Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to maintain a steady simmer and cook for 30 minutes.
  2. Serve with a sprinkling of finely diced red onion or shallots.

Notes

  • -- I use a center cut ham steak for this soup, cutting it into 1/2” dice. You could also use leftover baked ham.
  • -- Try adding a few handfuls of spinach or other green leafy vegetable to the pot.
  • -- If you don’t have leftover brown rice or don’t have time to cook it, you can easily use the frozen brown rice available in the freezer section of your grocery store.
  • -- Store any leftovers in the refrigerator. Note that the rice will continue to absorb moisture so you’ll need to add a little water when reheating.
