Soak the two types of beans together in plenty of water at room temperature several hours or overnight. Drain off the soaking water and rinse the beans, then place in a stockpot with the water, bay leaves, chili flakes, and 3 cloves of chopped garlic. Simmer over low heat until beans are tender - about an hour - adding more water if necessary, to keep the beans covered. Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large skillet. Over medium heat, saute the onion, the remaining 3 cloves of garlic, oregano, mustard seeds, cumin, chili powder, and crumbled tempeh. Add 1/4 teaspoon salt and stir and saute until the onion is becoming limp and tempeh is nicely browned, about 10 minutes. While tempeh is cooking, cut the dried peaches into short, thin strips. Remove the seeds and membrane from the chilies and slice crosswise into thin strips. When beans are tender, remove bay leaves and stir in 1/4 teaspoon salt. Add the tempeh mixture, orange juice, tomatoes, and their juice, honey, green chili strips, and chopped peaches. Simmer, stirring frequently, for 20 minutes. Serve hot. Serves 8. Serve with cornbread and Southwestern Salad (greens, tomatoes, corn, diced jicama, avocado, pumpkin seeds, and fresh cilantro in a dressing of orange juice and lime juice, cider vinegar, and light sesame oil with garlic) Per serving: 410 calories; 7g fat; 18g fiber, 68g carbs; 23g protein; 253 mg sodium; 0 mg cholesterol.
