Soaking the beans overnight helps them cook faster and become more tender. Feel free to add other vegetables like bell peppers or spinach for added nutrition. Adjust the spices according to your taste preference. For a thicker soup, use an immersion blender to blend a portion of it before serving. This soup can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or frozen for up to 3 months.
