This dish, a hearty and nutritious sorted bean delight, highlights the value of sorting your beans. While soaking improves the texture of the beans, removing debris and damaged beans guarantees a clean and flavorful result. The variety of beans make for a tasty and filling meal when paired with veggies and flavorful spices.
Ingredients: 2 cups assorted beans black, kidney, pinto. 1 onion, finely chopped. 2 cloves garlic, minced. 1 bell pepper, diced. 1 can diced tomatoes. 1 cup vegetable broth. 2 teaspoons cumin powder. 1 teaspoon chili powder. Salt and pepper to taste. 2 tablespoons olive oil.
Instructions: Sort beans to remove debris and damaged beans. Rinse sorted beans under cold water. Soak beans in water for at least 8 hours or overnight. In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onions and saut until translucent. Add minced garlic and saut for an additional minute. Stir in assorted beans, diced tomatoes, and vegetable broth. Season with cumin powder, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to simmer. Cover and cook for 1.5 to 2 hours or until beans are tender. Stir in diced bell pepper during the last 30 minutes of cooking. Adjust seasoning if necessary and serve hot. Enjoy your delicious and well-sorted bean delight!
