YEMEN STYLE KIDNEY BEANS AND TOAST AKA FASOOLIA OR FOOL
This kidney bean dish is typically eaten for breakfast with homemade bread, pita or toast. But I love it with crunchy French bread. You can crumble feta cheese or chopped onions over the dish. Then break a piece of the bread, scoop and eat. Add more or less jalapeno to make this as spicy as you like. You can add chopped green peppers and saute with the other veggies for a more ethnic flavor. You can also use 1/2 can white beans and 1/2 red beans for a more colorful dish.

Steps:
- Saute onion ,tomatoes ,garlic ,and jalapeno in 2 tbsp oil or ghee until onion is transparent and tomatoes are softened.
- Add tomato paste and stir. Add a few tbsp water and stir again being careful not to let it burn. Turn heat to low and let it simmer for a minute.
- Pour in kidney beans along with 1 cup of water and bring to a simmer.
- Add salt, pepper, and cumin.
- Simmer for 10 minutes on low.
- Add cilantro and cook until the dish thickens about another 5-10 minutes The sauce should coat the back of the spoon.
- You can crush the beans with a potato masher after step 5 if you don't like them whole. I puree in the blender before adding to the saucepan for my children because they don't like it chunky.

FASOULIA (BREAKFAST KIDNEY BEAN DISH)
This is a traditional breakfast served in many Arabic countries. It can also be eaten for lunch or dinner in case you don't have any meat on hand, as the beans are full of protein and fiber! Very delicious! Serve and eat the traditional way, by grabbing it with pita bread.
