I figure my kids are the true test, since they aren't that… |

Fresh Pintos by GroomsieMy grandmother Manuela taught me how to make these. She used to serve them in her restaurant in Mexico. A simple recipe which can be served as a side dish or even as an entree! Great to have your kids or grandchildren sort through the beans the night before. Remove broken beans, dirt and rocks before soaking. |

Coach's Favorite Baby Lima Beans by myra byankaI have a dog park buddy (former basketball coach) I cook for, and he brought me this recipe a lady in his school cafeteria gave him before retirement. If you can't find dried baby lima beans, use canned or frozen. This is a real southern comfort food dish, which you will see when you read the ingredients. |

Red onion and tomato add texture and color. I tend to overlook lentils so I found a great way to prevent the dreaded mush. Slightly undercook the lentils and then let them sit in the pot until just… |
