This is an Authentic Costa Rican dish that my girlfriend's mother used to make us. She just passed in October and we got this recipe just in time. I thought I would put it out there for everyone to enjoy...
The original recipe comes out of one of my vegetarian cookbooks. I've played with the dressing over the years and scaled it up to work more easily with canned beans. Less than 5 minutes to put it together,...
Adapted from Budget Bytes... This is super easy to make and can be spicier with the addition of another jalapeno, maybe some diced green chilies, chili powder, etc. Next time I make it I'm going to throw...
I found this recipe in a little betty crocker magazine called simple healthy meals. This recipe is so good because it is made with on hand ingredients so I use this as an easy, last minute idea when I...
If you can run a can opener, you can easily prepare this delicious soup! It's a family favorite, adapted from a recipe by Jan Olpin, that's tasty, quick-to-make, and freezes excellently!
A healthy, flavorful variation of black bean soup which is great with tortilla chips on the side. I found it at http://www.cookingwithtraderjoes.com/Sample_Recipe_1.html
for being so easy, this soup will knock your socks off! totally vegetarian and is really great with some crusty bread or some finely shredded cheddar cheese and/or sour cream on top!
A take on authentic feijoada, although this is not authentic. I was short time and ingredients, but it still came out delicious. Use smoked polish sausage, or longaniza sausage if you cannot find linguica....
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.
From Real Simple magazine, Fake it, Don't Make it section, Nov. 2003. Canned black beans, salsa, sour cream and canned chicken broth-and Lime and dry sherry are optional. OK to freeze since it reheats...
From Womens Health magazine. Reading through my magazine came across a number of summer salad recipes and they all looked great. I was inspired to make this and the Lime Biryani tonight. Doubled the recipes...
I saw this recipe in the Tyler newspaper and I don't even like blackeye peas and thought this might be good. Mentioned it to a friend and she had already made it the day before and loved it. Made last...
I figured if Garth and Trisha liked it, it must be good. And I was right! Rich without being too rich. I have taken the liberty of adding more veggies and listed them as optional. If you like, you can...
I made this tonight, it was pretty good. This is how I made it. It turned out a little sweet so just add the syrup or the sugar unless you like it sweet. I think it was still good. Try it and tell me what...
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.
Another great tasting recipe from Cook's Illustrated: Fresh off the cob is perhaps the best way to eat summer corn, but corn tossed with beans and tomatoes is a close second. The sweetness of the beans...
A quick easy recipe using canned black beans for a side dish any night of the week. I love this with my Margarita Chicken or just any citrus grilled chicken or fish. Maybe a nice spicy chili rub on chicken...
Another of my Top Ten favorites from Colorado Cache, a classic recipe we enjoy often at The Hotel California. The secret ingredients are the parsnips and the Madeira, of course. This soup is so good, it's...
This is an exceptional recipe! I don't like black beans... well, I thought I didn't like black beans, until I made this recipe. Wow! I love black beans! This is a recipe from "The New James Beard", with...
My dad used to make this once a week growing up. The recipe came off a tortilla wrapper over 20 years ago. Super easy, cheap, lowfat, and yummy! Serve with a salad for a great weeknight meal.
When the snow flies, I like to make Chili, with and without meat. This is a variation on black bean chili I came up with one night and liked. Add some shredded chicken or cubed pork to it if you like.
This recipe is from week eleven of my food blog, Travel by Stove. I am attempting to cook one meal from every nation on Earth, and Antigua and Barbuda is my eleventh stop. I found this recipe to be a little...
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....
With its black beans and corn, this recipe could just as easily have been called Santa Fe Minestrone. But whatever you call it, it is a sensational soup and makes a filling meatless meal. Perfect for cool...
From "Moosewood Restaurant: New Classics" (C: 2001). Serve it on rice, polenta, or grits, topped with salsa, grated cheese or sour cream and chopped fresh cilantro. You may also embellish with garlic,...
I got this recipe from a cookbook that came free in the mail (from a cigarette company of all things)!! I modified it slighty, and I've gotten nothing but compliments on it. I do tend to go heavier on...
