I would season them with cumin, salt, and pepper, add some shredded cheese, dump them in a whole wheat tortilla, and chow down. Actually, that's exactly what I had for lunch yesterday. :-) I had mine with some sliced avocado--delicious. You could also add some vegetable broth, tomatoes, and seasonings, then blend them in a blender, heat, and eat as a soup. Sharon in CAczoghi <zoghi_c wrote: 3-4 cups of already

Get on board. You're invited to try the new Mail.

When I cook up a big batch of beans, I freeze them in ziplock bags. I use a

standard size bean can to measure them, so each ziplock bag is equal to a can of

beans.

 

I have a recipe that uses pinto beans and black beans that I will post later.

Either make a bean salad (add fresh green beans, some thinly-sliced red onion, good olive oil and vinegar) or mashed with cooked brown rice or leftover oatmeal or cooked couscous, quinoa, bulger, or kasha, add a couple of eggs if you use them, and whole wheat bread crumbs, mix together, top with tomato sauce and bake in the oven in a loaf pan for an hour at 350 F. Voila - bean loaf! You can then serve with sauce, or slice and use on sandwich bread with lettuce and tomato. LEftovers can be frozen.czoghi <zoghi_c wrote: Any suggestions?

I'm definitely going to save these ideas for the next time! I

haven't made a loaf yet, but sounds good.

 

Thanks!

You can mash them, maybe add a little onion or spice, and heat them in a

microwave to use as a bean dip or sandwich filling.
