New with a recipe

[Guest guest]

Hi All

 

My name is Carol, I'm a single mom of 7, 4 boys 19, 17, 16, 11, 3 girls

14, 9, 6.

We all eat healthy, not the 11 year olds choice, but the rest of us eat

no red meat.

We eat lots of grains and beans and veggies of all kinds, my youngest

loves tofu, she will eat it right from the package.

Here is a recipes all the kids eat, i hope you like it.

Thank you Donna for the invite, the files look great.

Cannellini Beans With Garlic

 

1 pound cannellini beans, dried

2 celery ribs, finely chopped

1 yellow onion, finely chopped

2 garlic cloves, finely chopped

1/2 teaspoon dried thyme

2 quarts water

3/4 teaspoon salt

 

Rinse the beans in a colander and pick out any stones, debris, or

funky-looking beans.

Place the beans in a large bowl and add cold water to cover by 2 inches.

Let soak for 8 to 12 hours.

(OR: quick-soak by placing the picked-over beans in a large saucepan and

cover by 1 to 2 inches of water. I use this method, easier for me.

Bring to a boil, cover and remove from heat; let stand for 1 hour.)

Combine the beans, celery, onion, garlic, thyme and the 2 quarts water

in a large pot.

Bring to a boil, cover reduce heat and simmer until the beans are tender

but not mushy, about 1 hour.

Drain well, season with salt.

Makes 8 cups.
