I can still hear him say that he got more energy out of that meal than any other. I learned to like it too.<br /><br />Each fall, your grandma would cook up several gallons of chili for sale at the 2nd Ward concession stand at the Eastern Idaho State Fair. I loved that chili which was heavy on kidney beans and hamburger. <br /><br />I also love succotash.The protein in the beans complements the carbohydrates in the corn.Dale Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01806698744292076677noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8546718730043897500.post-50665887600631646062012-03-01T21:36:24.700-08:002012-03-01T21:36:24.700-08:00I love beans, the kids are more picky.

No presoaking required! Sometimes I put them (rinsed) right into soup, but sometimes I rinse and stick them in the fridge, to add to salads, or sauteed greens, or to mash up and spread on bread or crackers.<br /><br />Our favorites are flageolet or white for soup and Santa Maria pink or pinto for chili and red lentils for anything with coconut lol. I will buy any dry bean I haven't seen before. Mostly we eat pintos though--they are cheap and the kids don't complain. And they're good :)Dreehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15059983303403184992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8546718730043897500.post-41754408567469270592012-03-01T18:39:53.008-08:002012-03-01T18:39:53.008-08:00Awesome!

You guessed it-beans, with rice, of course. I thought that I would get so sick of rice and beans, but I didn't. I actually really enjoyed them. <br />Now I just have to try convincing my family to have rice and beans for every meal. It would make my life so much easier! :)Jen Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09851982833447178291noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8546718730043897500.post-17208770838576091482012-03-01T07:52:06.030-08:002012-03-01T07:52:06.030-08:00I love green beans.

You just toss them lightly in olive oil and your favorite spice, then cook in the oven at 450 for about 30 minutes.

And also, if you soak the beans prior to eating, they'll allow you to digest them even better and keep you full even longer all the while absorbing all their good nutrients!!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09069117326093443006noreply@blogger.com
