It was one of those days when I didn't have a clue about dinner. And, It was cold outside. So the creativity button clicked in and this is what came out. Warm, filling and delicious, it hit the spot. "This is a winner" came from the one lonely diner. I think you can try different beans and see what develops. We like using two different kinda. This is good with a crusty bread. Hope you enjoy:)
