Vegan? Catholic who abstains from meat on Fridays? Or just looking for a hearty fall recipe?
The Star posted a recipe for Old Style Pinto Beans the other day from a cookbook called Decolonize Your Diet: Plant-Based Mexican-American Recipes for Health and Healing (affiliate link), and if you’ve got a reasonably stocked kitchen, you probably have everything you need.
There are instructions for both slow cooker (yay!) and stove top cooking, and uses dried beans with no pre-soaking required. (Well, they have to cook for a long time, but with a slow-cooker, that’s no problem.) I didn’t have pinto beans on hand so used my stash of romano beans instead.
There’s a facebook group and website that can help you find other ways to pump up the health factor in your diet. I’ll be checking them out.
Domestic Bliss: The Empty Nest 
Hi Janet:
Thanks for this.
We use the slow cooker a lot, particularly for ribs and pork butt. Very tasty, and the meal prep is all done in advance.
I’m calling the Liberals to win at least 160 seats Monday. What do you think?
Ian

Not sure about the numbers, but I’m seeing a Liberal victory of some sort. I voted in the advance polls as Zouheir was likely to be away on the 19th. A nice Thanksgiving walk to the polling station.
