I have a vegan roommate and the rest of them are fairly hard core carnivores. It is a great dish as I can do most of the prep and make a small part vegan for her and still satisfy the rest of them.<BR/><BR/>This will become a staple.

I guess it's not so much that I'm good at it, as you can't go wrong! This sounds delicious, but remarkably like a dish I myself would create. Black beans and cheese and rice and tortillas are definitely inseperable in my head due to their deliciousness when together. <BR/>I can't figure out what, exactly, is so yummy about black beans when compared to other beans. Maybe it's just the 'they're-not-the-kidney-beans-of-your-youth' factor. <BR/>I've heard they have extra nutrition in them too, as indicated by their dark colour (and we know that the darker the colour, the greater the vitamin content). So perhaps that cancels out all that ooooey gooeeey cheeeese.bethhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11928285827377006198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10970055.post-26900769936148591542007-11-21T05:34:00.000-08:002007-11-21T05:34:00.000-08:00Ooh, this sounds good.

Do you have any recs for schools, are there good job opportunites in the field. I am not sure how best to communicate with you about this. I could put my email address up and then you could delete it?<BR/>Anyway if you could give any advice/direction for a young person wanting to enter the field it would be most appreciated.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10970055.post-39453633092334213262007-11-18T22:53:00.000-08:002007-11-18T22:53:00.000-08:00sounds great.

This is right up my alley as I've been on a no meat kick for a couple of weeks now. Beans and I are best buds now.<BR/><BR/>Ever since i started working outside the home again I no longer have the energy or desire to cook a different meal every day of the week, so I prepare a huge pot of something on Sunday (i.e. chili or bean stew) and top it up with plenty of rice(or quinoa) and package it up for the week to take to work...assembly line meals to go.<BR/><BR/>Fast, economic and healthy.Joannenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10970055.post-30555945078603357912007-11-18T18:22:00.000-08:002007-11-18T18:22:00.000-08:00Oh.
