You could even cube some squash instead.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Beans: <\/strong>Any kind of beans could be used in place of the black, such as kidney and pinto, or a mix. See below for suggestions of brands.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Rice: <\/strong>Similarly, any type of rice can be used here. I like short-grain brown. To make 2 \u00bc cups of cooked brown rice, bring 1 \u00bd cups of water and \u00be cup of dry\/uncooked rice to a boil uncovered in a medium saucepan over high heat. Reduce the heat to low, then cover and simmer for 45 minutes for long-grain rice or 50 minutes for short-grain rice. Remove from the heat and let stand for 10 minutes with the lid still on.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tomatoes: <\/strong>See the photo below, as there are many types of packaged tomatoes you can use. Or you can use fresh as well. For this recipe use 2 cans of diced tomatoes, or 1 jar (of the Eden brand), or the whole box of the Pomi brand.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sauteing alternative: <\/strong>If you want to skip the step of sauteing the onion and other vegetables first, you can also just put everything into your soup pot at once and cook it until the potatoes are tender. I like sauteing because it intensifies the flavors, especially with onion and mushrooms.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Spices and herbs: <\/strong>I don't favor overly hot and spicy flavors in my meals, but if you do, this would be a good one to add more chili powder and\/or other favorite chili or Mexican food herbs\/spices to. I like \"ancho\" chili powder since it\u2019s mild.<\/p>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t\t\t<div class=\"tasty-recipes-other-details\" style=\"background-color: #E1E1E1 !important;\" data-tasty-recipes-customization=\"secondary-color.background-color\">\n\t\t\t<ul>\n\t\t\t\t<li class=\"prep-time\"><span class=\"tasty-recipes-label\" style=\"color: #222 !important;\" data-tasty-recipes-customization=\"detail-label-color.color\"><svg viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" class=\"detail-icon\" aria-hidden=\"true\" style=\"color: #222 !important;\" data-tasty-recipes-customization=\"icon-color.color\"><use href=\"#tasty-recipes-icon-clock\"><\/use><\/svg>Prep Time:<\/span> <span style=\"color: #222 !important;\" data-tasty-recipes-customization=\"detail-value-color.color\" class=\"tasty-recipes-prep-time\">25 mins<\/span><\/li><li class=\"cook-time\"><span class=\"tasty-recipes-label\" style=\"color: #222 !important;\" data-tasty-recipes-customization=\"detail-label-color.color\"><svg viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" class=\"detail-icon\" aria-hidden=\"true\" style=\"color: #222 !important;\" data-tasty-recipes-customization=\"icon-color.color\"><use href=\"#tasty-recipes-icon-clock\"><\/use><\/svg>Cook Time:<\/span> <span style=\"color: #222 !important;\" data-tasty-recipes-customization=\"detail-value-color.color\" class=\"tasty-recipes-cook-time\">30 mins<\/span><\/li>\t\t\t<\/ul>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"tasty-recipes-nutrition\">\n\t\t\t<h3 style=\"color: #222 !important;

Pomi brand has a similar taste and contains only tomatoes (no salt); it is not organic. The Muir Glen and 365 brands are organic and salt-free, and I like them too, but they have a little of that \"from a can\" taste to them, but it's not objectionable. The Pomi and Eden packages contain about twice as much as a can of diced tomatoes.
