Navy Bean Soup - A Knott’s Berry Farm Classic

Navy Bean Soup - A Knott’s Berry Farm Classic by Salad Foodie

My Knott’s Berry Farm Cookbook is dated 1980 so I wondered just how its Navy Bean Soup recipe would stack up against today’s interpretations.

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.

Brew and Bean Chili

Brew and Bean Chili by Jackie Newgent

Beer’s not just for drinking anymore! It’s for stewing—or “eco-brewing.” As this chili is sans meat, the beer adds another layer of flavor.

Ojo de Cabra Estofado (Eye of the Goat Bean Stew) by Ken Hulme

Here's my take on a traditional Mexican stew, using Ojo de Capra (Eye of the Goat) heirloom beans. This is a stew; it has beans in it. Chile does not contain beans.
