Black Bean Chili Soup


We had a big winter storm come through which meant no quick trips to the grocery store. I have had to plan my meals around a pantry and refrigerator clean out. My plan was to make chili for dinner however; i realized that i had some beef stock in the refrigerator that needed to be used up...not wanting it to go to waste, my chili soon became a very tasty soup. I hope you all enjoy.
