When’s the last time you ate beans? About a week ago when I had black and pinto beans from Chipotle. Do you have a favorite bean? Black, pinto, garbanzo, great northern, maybe even green? Black beans or green beans What’s your favorite meal or recipe that includes beans? Hm…probably my crock pot Tex mex chicken chili with black beans.
I love beans but they are tricky here because hubby doesn’t eat them. I have them for lunch pretty frequently - usually black beans because they’re good without too much fuss. My favorite is a black bean soup recipe from a restaurant cookbook from a fancy restaurant we used to go to a lot when we lived in another city. Takes forever to make but it’s worth it.
When’s the last time you ate beans? Oh gosh, it's been a few months. I make a lot of beans in the fall and winter. I've maybe had green beans a time or two this summer. Do you have a favorite bean?

Just good ole pinto beans with bacon, some corn bread, maybe some fried cabbage to go with them YUM

When’s the last time you ate beans? A few days ago I had black beans mixed in with rice and roasted veggies with an aoli sauce drizzled overtop. Do you have a favorite bean? Black, pinto, garbanzo, great northern, maybe even green? I like all beans. I mostly eat a lot of garbanzo and black beans but also use white beans and lentils often. What’s your favorite meal or recipe that includes beans? I make a lot of buddah bowls with veggies/protein and black beans or chickpeas with a drizzle a tahini or mayo/hot sauce overtop. I also like black bean tortillas with shredded chicken and cheese or eliminate the chicken and put in flavored TVP. I like bean dips too. I like refried beans mixed with a can of rotel tomatoes, sour cream, cream cheese, cheddar, olives, green chilies and salsa. Blend it all up and heat in the oven or microwave. I use a tin each of rotel and refried beans, small tin of green chilies, half a block of cream cheese and 1/2 cup sour cream along with a handful of cheddar cheese, about a cup. I mix in taco spice to taste, I don't measure but probably a tbsp or two. I top with olives and green onions.
lol I’m sorry you were punished with Lima beans. I’ve always hated Lima beans and pick them out of veggie mixes.
Mmm your food sounds delicious Rae! I need to try your bean dip. I’ve never heard of buddah bowls before.
I’ve had beans every day since I’ve been vegan (about 3 years), and even before that I liked all kinds of beans and had them often. I like them all, but chickpea are the most versatile, I’d say. Tofu (soybeans) is really awesome too. I think I shared a tomato beans recipe a month or two ago so I wanted to share a recipe for chocolate cookies using black beans — it’s really yummy, doesn’t taste like beans — but I can’t get the website to load. It’s from nutritionfacts.org if you want to try. Maybe later when I’m on my computer instead of my phone I’ll try again. Update! Found it on my computer: https://nutritionfacts.org/recipe/brownie-sandwich-cookies/ I’d also like to recommend my favorite chef, Rainbow Plant Life (both a website and a YouTube channel). She taught me to cook tofu and has lots of great bean recipes. https://rainbowplantlife.com/#search/q=beans https://rainbowplantlife.com/#search/q=tofu
When’s the last time you ate beans? About one minute ago! I came home from work and made a refried black bean quesadilla with cheese, rice, onions and green enchilada sauce! Do you have a favorite bean? Black, pinto, garbanzo, great northern, maybe even green? Huge fan of black beans! What’s your favorite meal or recipe that includes beans? See question 1!
