    Not sure if anyone else has posted this or not, since there are 11 pages of recipes :laugh: but we do black bean tacos once a week. Super easy - drain & rinse your black beans & heat them on the stove along with a can of Ro-tel spicy tomatoes. Once hot, use your favorite taco toppings. (I'm sure someone else has a more sophisticated recipe than this. I have 2 teenagers involved in everything so my dinners are super simple.)

    I improvised yesterday, but ended up loving the result!

    -1 can beans (I used borlotti) (don't drain!)
    -1 can pre-cooked spelt
    -1 tbsp. tomato sauce
    -salt
    -pepper
    -parsley

    Heat two teaspoonds of olive oil in a pan or skillet, dump the beans WITH THEIR SAUCE, and add the tomato.
    Stir and cook on medium heat for a couple of minutes, adding parlsey and plenty of salt and pepper.
    When the the sauce has reached the right constintency (you can have it as thick as you like, or runny if you're more in the mood for a soup), add the spelt and stir well.
    I serve it on a warm corn tortilla.

    Tips:
    -You can definitely use dry beans and dry spelt, but pre-cooked obviously saves time. It comes together in five minutes tops!
    -The first time around, I drained my beans. It comes out more like a salad, with very very little sauce and the ingredients are less blended. It's equally delicious, just depends on how you like it ;)
    -you can rice if you prefer (but spelt has fewer calories, I think)

    bon appetit!

    bump - i made those black bean brownies a long time ago and they were good! Just didn't realize i had to put em in the fridge. they were GROSS by day 2! HAHAHAHA

    Now - Mind you, I was very young (early 20's) and really had never done much cooking before that (eating out a lot - leading to having to lose a lot of weight)

    I am older...and a tiny bit wiser. :)
