Hoping Jaime or someone else can help me... I occasionally have the need for a mexican-style bean filling recipe - typically to be used as filling for a burrito or similar. So far, all of my attempts have turned out to not even be close to what I'm looking for.
Originally the recipes I found ended up tasting more like what you'd have if you blended homemade american chili... i.e. predominantly chili powder and related spices. Then there's the mix some sort of canned beans with some sort of tomato-heavy salsa recipes. No thank you. I tried a bit with cooking dry beans + onions + peppers in a pot, seemed to recall that was the most like what I wanted, but never could get it to the right mix for some reason. It's been a while since I experimented with this - and this is probably where I'd try again absent another recommendation. Nowadays the 'healthy food' movement seems to have taken over any bean dish and you end up with crap like "Vegan Black Beans" with all sorts of weird stuff in them. So I'm hopeful that someone on here has come up with a good, flavorful, recipe. The ones I've tasted elsewhere tend to have a nice mild pepper flavor without being overpowering or too hot. And by pepper I mean either a bell pepper flavor or maybe some of the milder chili peppers. -- - Forrest -- AF mailing list [email protected] http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com
