This was usually my choice when it was my turn to choose a meal for Mom to prepare. She got the recipe from her good friend who was also my godmother. Enjoy!
Hearty winter fare, full of flavor. Serve over noodles or thick-crusted bread; rice would be lovely too! From Martha Rose Shulman of the New York Times
This is simple enough. If you have the time, try cooking pinto beans from dried using my Cooked Dried Beans (Recipe #354834). Use for dinner as a side or for breakfast burritos. Check the liquid (water...
This is great for picnics and potlucks, and it's simple to throw together the night before. I didn't have cannellini (white kidney) beans so I used pinto beans and red beans. I also substituted hot dogs...
this is my chili recipe. it won the "people's choice" award last year at a superbowl party. it is a little spicy - but not too hot to enjoy. add cooked ground meat if you like, but i like this without....
This recipe actually came from a Sunday newspaper circular for McCormick spice coupons. After I tried this recipe I have never gone back to any other spice mix or package for chili with or without meat....
This is from Just Food. I haven't tried it yet. In Belize they use a small piece of salt pork in it and omit the salt. I think that could be very good. I have no idea how long it takes to make.
This is a quick, easy, and refreshing dinner that I think is pretty healthy (contains veggies and fiber and can be made pretty low in fat). Although I did get the original recipe from the Moosewood Low...
What began as a "use what's in the pantry" became a family favorite. Garbanzo beans, ground beef, diced tomatoes and niblets corn combine with zesty spices for a satisfying winter dish that can also be...
Back in the days when I was cooking a lot with wine & mixers & cordials, etc, I squirreled away my version of baked beans. Today it resurfaced, & here it is! I usually use a version of B&M baked beans....
The State of Tamil Nadu in South India is the origin for Madras Curry, versatile salads, and stir-fry. Of course, locally they are known by different names. A twist on a traditional salad, my chickpea...
here is a delicious soup I prepare in the morning, and let it cook during the day. I come home add spinach, and cook for 10 minutes, and I have a wonderful soup.
This salad usually accompanies grilled steaks in Argentina or Uruguay. It is traditionally made using Poronto Beans but this recipe substitutes fava or you can subtitute with pinto or kidney beans as well....
Chili frijoles pairs terrifically well with Spanish rice as a component of a hearty Mexican meal. From the Southwest chapter of the United States Regional Cookbook, Culinary Arts Institute of Chicago,...
From Nava Atlas. One half teaspoon of thyme indicated in original recipe was replaced with fresh cilantro. (Sorry, I don't care for thyme.) Adzuki beans are available both dried and canned.
Melt-in-your-mouth-tender sausage and rave reviews at my large family gathering mean we'll be serving this again. I served it for a noon meal, so I soaked the beans overnight before assembling early-morning,...
Very good side dish! Can be made 1 day ahead! Given to me by my friend across the street, she got this from a Bon Appetit magazine. She is a wonderful cook!
This one is from CHILI PEPPER magazine. Red Caldwell has been winning cooking, grilling, and barbecueing compititions for the last 15 years. These are the ABSOLUTE BEST TEX-MEX BEANS ever.
Red Kidney beans by Camellia in LA are far superior beans to anything else on the market. I get them from Cajungrocer.com since I can't find them in my area. Additionally, They stay good for a very long...
This is my recreation of the pinto beans at our favorite BBQ restaurant. It took a while to get the spicy, slightly sweet flavor right and this comes pretty durn close to the original.
This is a very simple recipe for a great meal! You can add your own tweak to it by spicing it up a notch with extra green chilies. My family really goes for this one...
From Marcus Samuelsson - this dip is so good. It is like hummous and baba ganoush had a delicious baby. The prep time looks super long because you have to soak the dried chickpeas.
I created this recipe through modifications of other hummus recipes. It suits my family's taste just right and is healthier than others I have seen. My tip is to drain all the oil off the tahini when you...
Persian noodle soup (ashe means soup, reshte means noodles). This one also has beans and a beef garnish. Reshte can be found in Middle Eastern food stores. From step 4 on, you'll be cooking the soup and...
Unusual! This dish gives a twist on the standard refried-beans-in-flour-tortillas: the filling is made from chickpeas, not pinto beans. The lemon juice, olive oil and tomatoes give the mixture added flavor...
Expecting a hungry crowd? Do I have a recipe for you! It takes little prep time, cooks on its own, serves a large group and tastes great! This comes from a Texan friend, Audra, and is a popular fund raiser...
I have tweaked this cooking light inspired vegetarian dish, just a little to boost flavor, added a few calories, but boy it really is worth it. I have adapted this recipe for the crockpot, but all you...
I originally learned this recipe that I learned from my good friend of mine from San Juan. She taught me to make beans and rice like the natives do it. Of course over the years I've adapted it to make...
From the New York Times Vegetarian Thanksgiving 2013. Eggplant is always a good, substantial vegetable to use for a vegetarian main dish. The chickpeas and the feta provide plenty of protein. Vegans can...
