Great soup, but what were the "leftover beans from Tuesday?" Please write what recipe it refers back to (the date) so I know whether the beans were seasoned or not.

I added cumin, garlic, and bay leaves I made this 8 min on high with raw chicken in IP. Natural release and shred chicken after. Good and filling but missing something.
0 HelpfulThis is fantastic. It's so easy to put together, even if this is something you pcijed from the archives like I did and then you needed to find the fajita recipe to find out how to make the chicken. I'll make this again for sure.
