Cooking Tip
As a variation, substitute pulled pork for rotisserie chicken.
Choosing the Best Beans
Hearty beans are perfect for satisfying the whole family. Though the taste and texture vary from one bean to another, feel free to substitute your favorite legume.
– Pinto Beans: We opted for pinto beans because these have a nice and creamy texture and add earthy notes.
– Black Beans: The best substitute – in terms of flavor, shape, and texture – would be black beans.
– Kidney Beans: Slightly sweet, kidney beans are both dense and meaty. There’s a reason that kidney beans are so often found in chilis and stews. Firm yet tender, these beans absorb all the flavors in your soup.
