Magic Beans

[The Reluctant Homesteaders] Before I received my big box of beans, I had really only cooked three or four kinds of beans. I hadn't really thought much about beans as a flavor.

[emmycooks] Black Beans with Cilantro and Lime « emmycooks: ground cumin, plus salt to taste.  The amount of salt you need will vary greatly depending on how salty the beans start out and whether you are using the bean-cooking liquid or water (or a combination), so experiment by adding it gradually and giving it a few minutes of simmering to work its way into the beans.  Simmer for 15 minutes or so to let the flavors blend.  You can mash some of the beans if you like, or cook them for longer to thicken the consistency.  Finish by adding a huge handful of chopped cilantro (finely-chopped stems are fine here; this is a good place to use them up!)

[An Apple a Day Wisdom] Freezer Cooking: Mexican Flavor: I always cook my beans from scratch to control the sodium and seasonings.  To reduce gas and stomach upset, I recommend the quick soak method on the back of most dry bean bags.  It has worked every time I make a pot of beans.  For these black beans I added light salt, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder and chili powder, not much because the meat has fajita seasoning.  When the beans are finished I completely drain them.  I just browned the ground beef and drained it.  Then in the same pan I sauteed the onions, peppers and zucchini.  I saute separately so the grease from the beef doesn’t absorb into the vegetables.  Mix together all ingredients in a large bowl.  Lay out each tortilla shell and scoop approximately 3/4 cup of the mixture onto the shell.  Fold over one side of the shell to cover the bean mixture, then fold in the ends, then roll the shell on over and close it up.  This makes a sort of pocket burrito with a square shape.
