Cajun Crowder Beans

Cajun Crowder Beans by Amos Miller

Also known as Crowder peas, these delicious little fellas can often be found in frozen form at the store. These are fresh picked right here in Michigan and, like fava beans and so many other seasonal treats, we rush them to the table. Crowders are really a 'Southern' treat and I first enjoyed them when visiting relatives in West…

Red Beans & Rice with Salsa

Red Beans & Rice with Salsa by Salad Foodie

A one-dish meal or side to meat or fish, red beans and brown rice are perfect partners. The salsa is a bonus to have as a garnish for the beans and rice or as a chip dip alongside. This recipe is from "In the Kitchen with Rosie (Daley): Oprah's Favorite Recipes," and posting it aligns with my resolution to peruse then use more…

Crock pot lentil soup

Crock pot lentil soup by Carolinaheartstrings

I love lentil soup and I must not be alone in that love because when I used to buy canned soup I loved a particular brand’s lentil soup and it was always missing from the shelf. I cannot believe it took me so long to make this because it was so easy and so delicious. Even The Husband liked it and I never thought I would get him to…

Easy Sweet French Cassoulet by Robyn Savoie

The French know cassoulet as a classic, long-simmered dish consisting of white beans and various -- sausages, pork or goose. This version is a less time consuming spin on the classic. This is my adapted version from the original. I made this one based on what I had on hand in the pantry. Both are good, it depends on what you're…

Chorizo Sausage and Beans

Chorizo Sausage and Beans by Carolinaheartstrings

Nothing says “cold weather classic” to me like one of my childhood favorites, beanies and weenies. At my house that is what we called pork and beans with hot dogs cut up and mixed together and baked in the oven. I loved it! My mother always made a pan of corn bread to go with it and I remember eating it when the weather was cold…

Mamaw's Green Been Casserole

Mamaw's Green Been Casserole by Wendi Taylor

This was one of my Grandma's traditional Thanksgiving dinner dishes - and apparently it's a favorite here on CookEatShare as well! I think the pearl onions really set it apart from the typical green bean casserole. Another variation which has recently been suggested to me is to sprinkle shredded cheese on top before adding the…

Tex-Mex Turkey Chili with Beans

Tex-Mex Turkey Chili with Beans by myra byanka

Easy crockpot or Dutch oven recipe I came up with when I found some ground turkey on sale. Works on the stovetop, too. This recipe is fairly low fat, as turkey is 40% leaner than ground beef. Serve with cornbread or crackers.
