Combine all ingredients, except beans, in a large pot over medium-high heat.
Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, cover and let simmer for 20 minutes, or until potatoes are soft.
Add beans, stir and let simmer for 5 minutes. Serve warm.
Notes
Any beans are great in this recipe. I typically use 1 can of black beans and 1 can of white beans.This recipe can be made in a crockpot. Simply add all ingredients to crockpot and cook for 4 hours on high heat or 8 hours on low.Easily turn this into a freezer meal by putting all prepared ingredients except broth/water in a freezer bag, remove excess air and freeze. When ready to cook, pour frozen ingredients into a large pot, add broth/water and cook for 30 minutes.It can also be frozen once cooked. Let cool, pour into a freezer bag and store in the freezer for up to 6 months. Be sure to leave 2" of headspace. Simply thaw and reheat to serve.
