Hi everybody[:D],
As you will see...there can be many different ways to cook and serve. It s easy to accommodate your family s tastes with this dish.
Ingredients:
2 cups coursely chopped onions
Enough cooking oil in pot to saute onions (I use Olive oil)
(ALL cans are 14 to 16 oz in size)
1-can Red/pink beans
1-can White beans
2-cans Black beans
2-cans peeled, diced tomatoes w/roasted garlic & onion
1-1 lb pkg Lil red smokies (mini cocktail sausages or your favorite sausage) (meat is optional)
1-can corn (optional & not creamed)
Spices: use what you like, we use some of these: minced garlic chips, oregano, cumin, chili powder, black or cayenne pepper, sea salt , etc. I always season to taste and don t measure![:o][&:][;)]
Directions:
Use enough oil in pan to saute the 2 cups of onions. Drain/rinse the liquid from the red and white beans (corn...just drain). Retain/use the liquid of the black beans and tomatoes. Add all ingredients to pot, spice and stir...simmer & stir ocassionally for about 20 minutes.
For hot side dish or chilled dip...leave out the meat. For a meal...you can serve with the meat...and/or with rice or pasta. For a " healthly version" I use smoked turkey sausage cut into chunks...if I m running late, in a hurry or just plain lazy...I use the mini sausages. For a spicier version, substitute just one can of the " roasted garlic & onion" tomatoes with one can of the " green chillies" version of tomatoes.
Bon apetite![;)]
