For the last year or so, a sweet dear friend has been gifting us beans, peas and various legumes. Such a blessing indeed, but it has really motivated me to scour for some recipes out of my normal recipe boxes. This one was a keeper. It is considered a side, but my kiddos think it’s great with the Scoop Corn Chips.
