Bean There, Done That

Beans. They seem so pedestrian. And yet - they are the workhorses of your pantry.

I know, you stocked up on dried beans for economical nutrition and the upcoming zombie-apocalypse and haven't been using them as often as you thought you would. That's okay. The beans forgive you. Beans are cool like that.

They wait patiently for you to remember to soak some overnight to make a dish, some even hang out in cans in case you forget.

I like refried beans. That's why I wanna try fried beans, because maybe they're just as good and we're just wasting time. You don't have to fry them again after all.
Mitch Hedberg

Beans offer good nutrition and body to a dish, and work magically with rice, corn and other grains. And herbs love 'em. Just ask them.

So get out your Tessa Kiros books and find a recipe featuring beans! Cook it up, post it, and link to Mr. Linky (below) to show it off!

In the meantime - have you had a chance to check out all the posts from last week? We had an outstanding Attitude of Gratitude going on!

Get your bean on and link a permalink up to Mr. Linky on or by December 4th.
