Made this last night using mild Rotel tomatoes for my five year old. Definitely could have used the regular for the spice / flavor. I’d double the black beans next time and possibly add onion. Excellent recipe, and beyond easy to make.
Would this freeze well?
I would suggest freezing it without the pasta. The pasta will absorb the liquid in the soup. If you do freeze it with the pasta, just add more liquid to the soup when reheating.
