New to group

[Guest guest]

Hi - I'm new to the group and new to ALL Vegetarian cooking. Today at the

farmers

market I found a terrific fresh sprouted bean mix (kidney/lentil/mung/blackeyed

peas).

Normally I would sprinkle these raw on salads, but today I cooked them:

 

2 1/2 cups fresh sprouted beans

1 medium onion, diced

1 clove garlic, minced

2 chipotle peppers and 2 tablespoons sauce from a can of Chipotles in Adobo

Sauce

2 sprigs fresh thyme

1 sprig fresh oregano

1 teaspoon ground cumin

1 teaspoon no salt Cajun Seasoning mix

1 tablespoon File Gumbo (ground sassafras)

1 box (32 oz) no salt vegetable broth

water to cover

1/4 teaspoon sea salt

2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

 

I threw all this into my medium sized Le Creuset pot and let it simmer over low

heat for 2

1/2 hours, adding water to cover and stirring occasionally. I add the lemon

juice during

the last half hour as I use very little salt and find it helps enhance the

taste. I served them

over brown rice and topped with two tablespoons of Whole Foods brand Fire

Roasted Salsa

(there's a little salt in the salsa and I found it was just enough for the whole

serving).

Delicious!
