Kaila, thanks for sharing that swap worked for you!
Amanda,
Thanks for the question. Sorry about not adding that part.
No, do not drain your beans. This adds flavor to your soup. If you like a more beany soup, then add another can. Not drained!
Thanks again. Enjoy

I saw someone mention adding cornstarch to thicken the soup. I am very new to cooking. If I wanted it thicker is there a specific amount to add?

Kim, start with 1 tsp mixed into like 4 oz of water. Then add that mixture to the pot. If it’s not thick enough for your liking, continue adding the 1 tsp/4 oz water combination. I always start with less and build up to be sure I get the consistency I want.
