Kongjaban (Korean Sweet Black Beans)

Kongjaban (Korean Sweet Black Beans) by jason kim

Today we made a healthy side dish to counter-balance all the meat we have been eating. It's called kongjaban (Korean sweet black beans), that has been pre-soaked for a lengthy time (to aid in digestion and reduce flatulence :) and cooked in some soy sauce.

Chorizo Anasazi Bean Soup

Chorizo Anasazi Bean Soup by Robert Long

The Anasazi bean has a distinct flavor that is worth exploring. The beans were grown by the Anasazi Indians of New Mexico and the old west. The addition of the Chorizo is an attempt to use a similar meat as was used by the indians.

Cassoulet

Cassoulet by Mel Philpott

My easier and not as fatty take on the french cassoulet.. usually has a chunk of pork and fatty sausages... I make this in the afternoon and my kids have some with the chicken off the bone and no chorizo, then we have it for our dinner. This is a filling hearty dish and there is usually leftovers for my husband's lunch the next day.

Homemade Refried Beans

Homemade Refried Beans by John Spottiswood

I'm ashamed to say that though I LOVE refried beans, this is the first time I've ever made them myself. It's just so easy to buy them in a can, or at a mexican restaurant, that I haven't bothered. But this recipe is simple and it is definitely worth the effort in my mind. I figure my kids are the true test, since they aren't that…

Limas and Salsa on Naan

Limas and Salsa on Naan by Rich H

Using up some leftovers can lead to a pretty good dish now and again. This one came about after a long weekend away. I decided to use some leftover Naan bread, red peppers and green onions. It was a very satisfying meal, served with fresh fruit and a nice red wine.
