From Eating Well magazine. This is mildly spicy, but you can use medium or hot. To eliminate the heat all together use green enchilada sauce or substitute 2-8 oz cans of plain tomato sauce.
I like this as it has a light flavour without being too salty or too sweet. When I made it, I used small red beans. Next time, I plan on doubling this because as is, it was simply gone too fast!
There are lots of black bean soups on Zaar, but none as simple as this. This recipe comes from a very old Rival cookbook. Prep time does not include time for soaking the beans.
This is fast and easy, tastes even better the day after you make it, and you can embellish it with shredded cheese, crushed tortilla chips, salsa...the options are endless! I wish I could remember where...
This is an interesting recipe from Gourmet magazine October 1989. I have not tried it yet. I am posting interesting recipes from my back issues of Gourmet as I simply cannot keep them any more.
From Everyday Food. I haven't tried them yet-I'm entering all of my recipes from magazines I've saved over the years to try to get rid of some of the clutter.
A nice change I found on the Bush's bean website. "Taco filling using fried beans as its base. Great with taco shells, tortillas, on taco salads or chips."
To make this dish completely vegetarian, use soy based cheese and sour cream substitutes. I believe white corn is less likely to have GM contamination, so that's what I use. This very mild. Add jalapenos...
This is the easiest, fastest, tastiest way to prepare beans. I grew up in a Mexican family and needless to say, beans are a staple of our diet. My stepmom has been making us beans like this for years....
These could be a heavy side dish, but we like them as the main course with a side of spanish rice and a salad. Feel free to make changes to suit your taste - this is fairly flexible. The filling also makes...
It is summer time and I wanted to use some of the garden vegetables. I found a black bean salsa recipe (#60617) on recipezaar. It sounded good, but I made roasted potatoes the night before and I had zucchini...
Entered for safe-keeping, from Kuhn Rikon's "Quick Cuisine". K-R recommends at least a 4-quart pressure cooker for this recipe. For maximum flavor, use a Long Soak (8 hours or overnight) before cooking...
I have never loved enchiladas with red sauce but received this recipe when I got married and decided to try it a couple years later. It is by far my husband's FAVORITE dinner, he cannot get enough of these....
This is perfect for those bluster days when you want something substantial in your belly after you brush the snow off your boots and thaw your hands and face. Perfect for a January in Buffalo area. This...
Although it looks complicated, using canned goods makes this a quick recipe, and it can simmer in a crockpot. The veggies add interesting texture. But the fun part is tasting the chili as it cooks to figure...
An adaption of Rachael Ray's beef and bean burrito burgers with a few extra ingredients and an awesome topping. Hopefully you will find that these are ingredients you have on hand. A family favorite! I...
I was at my boyfriend's house one Sunday night and he had half a bag of tortilla chips, hamburger, black beans and cheese. After madly searching for something to make on 'Zaar, I was inspired to create...
I was so sad that Campbell's discontinued Black Bean Soup, so had to attempt a clone. Please note that there are no Southwestern spices in this version. Also no butter, oil, or meat. Most of the Black...
This recipe comes from an Everyday Food magazine. I cut the recipe in half when it's just DH and me. Great for a BBQ or a cold night. Serve with a dollop of sour cream. You can also try adapting this for...
This is my version of the tex-mex black bean with corn salad. It is a great refreshing summer salad, high in healthy fats. Note: Cook time is for refrigeration.
This has evolved from a recipe I found in community cookbook. Very tasty and spicy depending on the salsa used. I use so many peppers because I like the colors, but you could just use your favorite.
The original recipe I found on epicurious many years ago but it used black eyed peas which I don't like. It was also labeled a salsa which I suppose would be good as well but my favorite way to eat this...
I always thought that Mexican pizzas sounded really cool and fun to make but always got discouraged at the lack of vegetarian options, since I think a lot of the commercial non-meat ground beef substitutes...
This is adapted from a recipe in Jane Brody's "Good Food Book." I made some changes so it would better fit our Nutritarian eating style. I like the soup because it is a little different from many of my...
This recipe is a good idea if you have some leftover chili. This recipie is fun and you have so many options. Alot of fun for the family and kids to pick ingredients. Optional Ingredients, French Fried...
After trying many recipes for Frijoles Negros, we've decided that this is by far our favorite! It's more time-consuming than some other recipes, but well worth the effort. Prep time does not include time...
I looked at a few different recipes for salsa and was lacking one or two ingredients for each recipe, so I looked at what I had on hand and made up the recipe. For all of the ingredients... if you really...
This is a very versatile salad. You can serve it as a side dish with any grilled or BBQ'd meat, as an accompaniment for your favorite enchiladas or fajitas, or as a dip with tortilla chips. You can add...
A beautiful presentation for a dip, this is one recipe that always ends with a clean platter. This recipe is an adaptation over the years from an old southwestern cookbook (I don't know where it ended...
