Hello. I am so excited about this site, I am like a kid in a sweet shop. I want to do this black bean soup bit have been unsuccessful in finding tons of black beans anywhere (in the UK) would Kidney Beans taste similar? Or should I give up on that particular recipe, there's so many to choose from, so it won't matter too much. I am currently following tour weekly meal plans. Love this site!

So happy you found my site and I really hope you enjoy my recipes. I think Kidney Beans would work fine, I didn't realise black beans were hard to source in the UK. But I just took a quick look on amazon and there are many on there you can order, if you want to get some. Also check out mysupermarket.co.uk

Love this blog! I wouldn't have bothered renewing my SW subscription if I had seen this first as I don't find SW as easy to use as it once was.
Really tasty soup, it looked a lot thicker in the photo though so unless I missed something in the recipe I'll use less water volume with the stock next time. And more beans 😀 Can't have too many beans...
