Bean Pie Recipe

[Guest guest]

Bean Pie

 

2 cans pinto beans

1 large onion chopped

1 cup cheddar cheese -- shredded

1/2 cup Salsa

 

Mix together beans (rinsed, if using canned), salsa, onions and cheese Toss

into pie shell. Top with pie crust. Make hole in centre for steam to vent Bake

in preheated oven at 350 for 45 min or so.

 

NOTES: You can use any bean you like as long as they are big ones. If you use

little black beans or the like you need more of them. You can throw another

cup full of chopped anything in. I often throw in leftover veggies that I have

in the fridge. You don't have to use cheese but it holds it all together inside

so nicely. You can use more salsa. It's just juicier.

 

This pie freezes like a dream and keeps for about 6 months in the freezer. I

bake 'em and them freeze some in one slice containers for snacks. You can also

freeze them uncooked. If you are doing that, cut down on the amount of onion as

it will be really oniony later when you cook it and don't use any strong veggies

like broccoli, cauliflower or cabbage. It comes out tasting just plain yucky.

" culee_99 " sent in a rice crust recipe using egg. If you want a vegan

version of that recipe, substitute the egg white with 1 Tbs ground flax

seed whipped up with 3 Tbs water - mixed in a blender or food processor

until frothy.
