Pink Beans With Smoked Ham Shanks & Kale by Bob Vincent

This is a hearty legume dish that is easy to make and stores well in the freezer. We generally eat some type of legume dish weekly. I like to try different combinations to offer variety knowing legumes are a great source of fiber and protein. Any kind of beans will work if you don't want or don't have access to pink beans. Soaking…

Uncle Sidney's Red Beans by Amos Miller

There are two ways to go here: smoked meats (sausage, rib tips, neck bones, ham, country bacon), OR pickled meat. Either way, you'll obtain a rich flavor profile and a satisfying meal.

The Best Vegetarian Chili - Thick and Hearty and Healthy! by Foodiewife

I absolutely adore Chili con Carne, and I make a great batch of it-- if I do say so, myself. So, I was a bit skeptical when I saw an episode of America's Test Kitchen proclaiming that this is "The Best" Vegetarian Chili. As I began to read the ingredients, I started to open up my mind that this quite possibly could be. So, is it?…
