    my favorite way to use them is rinse canned beans, simmer with a can of rotel tomatoes (they are spicy so no additional spices needed) and a chopped onion, 30 minutes and they taste delicious. i put them over brown rice or on whole wheat tortillas with chicken. they are great just with chopped grilled chicken in them as well.

    I do love me some beans! I just had a black bean quesadilla (with hot sauce!), and was thinking it was just about the best lunch ever..... I think being mindful of what goes in is helping me to appreciate food more, but that's a side benefit.

    Beans, especially black beans, are just good food.... I soak mine overnight, then cook them with an onion, about 15 cloves of garlic and a bunch of cilantro. When they're soft, I discard the cilantro, mash the garlic and onion, and then season the heck out of them. They're so good. And they mash well.....
