About

We've tried to keep this a secret for a long time, but we just can't hold it in any longer. So, here we go... here's Spill-The-Beans Soup! Known in our family for its savoriness and its absurd amount of beans, it's one of the recipes we consider a classic. The one catch is that you have to plan a little, because you have to let the bean-y goodness soak for a few hours in the slow cooker. But believe us, it's worth the wait and literally so easy! Phew, it feels good to finally get that off our chest. It's no secret no more just how delicious Spill-The-Beans Soup is!
