For the last few hours I have been playing around with some Black Beans DH brought home to use this weekend. I have not really cooked with them before since they do not grow locally and was expecting them to taste something similar to black eye peas....
I decided to add them to a pot of long grained rice mixed with cooked down black eyed peas (I added a bit of bacon for flavoring)..... It turned out so good!!!!
They taste similar to boiled peanuts and could be a HUGE protein source for the daycare since kids seem to instinctively LOVE peanut butter, I think...
Please, give me your black bean recipes....everything I look up has lots of cayenne or other hot peppers, Not toddler friendly
I have about 4 more pounds and they rock!!
