Garbanzo Bean Soup by Suzi

This garbanzo bean soup is very nourishing and quite easy to prepare. It has a tomato based broth using tomato paste. This is one of the first dishes that I learned how to make when I stopped eating meat, over forty years ago. Back then I ate cheese sandwiches with lettuce and garlic powder everyday until I realized I needed to…

Red bean rice (Moro de habichuelas rojas) by Arturo Féliz-Camilo

One of the most traditional Dominican dishes. I used to eat it cold from the fridge! The “red bean moro” is one of those foods that the defines being Dominican. A Dominican will never refuse a good Moro. A plate of “moro” with stewed meat and abundant meat sauce over it is a true culinary marvel. It is one of those foods that…

This is an excellent soup. I used lima beans because that is what I had on hand, but any white bean would work just as well. I also used my electric pressure cooker to cook it in. This appliance is one of my favorite cooking tools.

This vegan adaptation of traditional Spanish Style Beans and Rice is a nice light dish. Plate it with some fresh fruit slices for added color and flavor and you have a lovely, healthy dinner. If you choose to go more traditional, simply hard boil, peel and dice 2 eggs as a topping garnish and add it prior to serving.

Frijoles Borrachos by Cindy McNamara

...or Drunken Beans. Why just simmer plain ol' pinto beans when you can add a few ingredients and have MUY Delish Drunken Beans?? I prefer a dark beer for this recipe but any you have on hand should be fine. I used some heirloom Good Mother Stallard beans from Rancho Gordo growers here in Cali. They are available online along with a…

This Moong daal Payasam is one such healthy dessert, which I can eat anytime. I have prepared it before with different combinations of dal and rice.
