    Add crushed tomatoes, tomato soup, black beans, chili powder, cumin, bay leaves, red pepper flakes, pepper sauce, if desired, salt and pepper.

    If using a stock pot, bring mixture to a boil, reduce heat to a low simmer and cook 3 to 4 hours, uncovered, stirring and adding more water if necessary.
