Beef and Red Bean Soup
I am in a beefy mood and have decided to create a recipe with stew meat and red beans. I wanted to add a little heat so in goes the yellow chile peppers.
This soup is loaded with protein and vegetables. It is hearty and perfect for a chilly day. This soup is great as a leftover so make enough to put some away,
The flavor gets so much richer and you will love it one or two days later. Enjoy
