My miracle meal

Tip: cook with avocado oil, olive oil turns into a transfat when heated. Finish and salad with extra virgin olive oil.

Awesome bean recipe

Wow I made this recipe today and was blown away how delicious it is. Thank you for sharing this recipe ❤

you call this high protein? phytic acids from these beans are anti nutrients that make it harder for your body to absorb nutrients. Not to mention they are heavy in carbs, bloat and blow air out of your ass that guarantee you be single the rest of your life.

This is a high carb, low fat low protein gruel that is good for people living in a communist country with food insecurity. You'll be skinny fat in no time

It’s not nesessery to blended it if you cook the last five minutes in the high temperature. So the broth of the beans 🫘 will be thicker. Nice content thanks 🙏 love it 😍

Did it last week with Rancho Gordo black beans. It was sublime, tho I ended up oversalting just a tad. Trying it this week with bulk pintos from Sprouts.

Looks awesome. I'm stuck on the oil. That's more oil than I use in 6 months, but I'll try it your way once.

I live by myself and for the past year i've been cooking a soup based on a combination of grains, legumes and vegetables almost every sunday. With just a large enough pot it gives me a cheap and nutritious dinner for every day of the week. If you don't mind the monotony, it's the easiest thing you can meal prep and it's definitely healthy.

Hello, I'm new to your channel and I'm really impressed. I am a rice, bean, and broccoli lover so by the time I finished watching this video my mouth was watering. Still is! Thank you.

I love beans and I'm glad you have highlighted this excellent food source. However, I never soak beans and don't find it necessary. I use basically the same ingredients with a million variations and simmer for 2-2.5 hours. Add a pinch of baking soda near the end and test for tenderness to tell when they're done. They always turn out perfect.

A tip for creamy and tasty gravy: add in an onion, a carrot and a red bell pepper when you start to boil. When the beans are ready, place the mushy veggies in a blender and pour the resulting puree back into the gravy.

Here’s a recipe for all my beans lovers. Cooked white beans. Roasted garlic, roasted sunflower seeds. Lemon juice, Cooked manioc, bit of olive oil and salt blend all together place in container add olive oil on top to help preserve. Eat like any other spread add oregano, cilantro or condiments of choice enjoy.

Just made your recipe with black lentils and it is amazing! Looking forward to eating this for many meals.

Just returned from the grocery store with my big bag of Pintos! So excited to make this recipe. We will let you know how it goes

Wonderful presentation and recipe! Thank you!❤❤❤❤❤

I have the beans soaking with baking soda, and the rest of the ingredients ready for tomorrow!
Thank you for this beautiful recipe!

Edit: I couldn't wait until tomorrow, 6 hours soaking time and more cooking time will have to do! lol

So much oil! Scares me.

Oh, Nicole, sigh... If only there really were two of you 😁
Thank you for your wonderful channel! We're going to try this recipe with our family!

We made this again, but this time had some fun with the herbs. Instead, using 1 tsp thyme, 1/2 tsp oregano, and 1/4 tsp fennel seed. Made it Italian, and was still excellent. Next time, we're thinking cumin, coriander, and chipotle pepper powder to do a Mexican version.

1 teaspoon of baking soda to 2 cups for soaking beans!🫘 That’s the magic, I didn’t add baking soda before and it was not that luscious. Vegan and plant based foods for me 😊

I read that once olive oil is heated, it goes rancid, so is that not true?

I use a potato masher to make tgem creamy. lol

I have never eaten pinto beans

I am all for eating healthy. The problem is that all these "findings" and "statistics" push the prices of food up so high that the average household can't afford them. Olive oil is crazy expensive my side of the word. I could literally buy a 5lt veg oil cheaper than a 1lt olive oil. Same with health foods

Can this be made in a crock pot or slow cooker?

You are eating a typical South Indian lunch. We used to get this exact combination as mid-day meal from school (which is sponsored by government of India to avoid mal nutrition in kids) . Impatiently waiting for the bean scented lunch to be served is a sweet scented childhood memory for all South Indians.

A bean farmer told me they use Roundup when drying beans, claiming that is industry standard. 😢

Much more expensive, but I'm only buying organic in the future. Costco only sells canned, no dry option. Guess I'll do to Coop for dry in future.

I have hated and avoided beans my entire life, but I decided to give this recipe a try... it is so good! I am a bean convert. I have been eating it with rice almost every day. I didn't for two days and I actually missed it. Thank you Nicole, it is an absolute winner 😄

Round two of cooking this. I’m a new bean convert. I let most of the liquid boil off this time to make it let soupy. Thanks for the recipe.

Grandma had soup beans almost daily and my wife didn't make them or just stopped because they are mo instant food
I'm going to copy this recipe yes olive oil but certainly Grandma would have used lard

Loved the way you make them! I had never heard of the baking soda trick! As a Costarrican, beans are essential to our diets, but like 90% of the time they are used on a black or red types only, almost every household (that still cooks their meals) has a pressure cooker to do their beans, and same as you, are served with our typical non glutinous white rice, but with a trick, beans are cooked with culantro (Eryngium foetidum) and oregano (Lippia graveolens) aside from the thyme and onion, garlic and red bell pepper, so they have some special taste.
And then there is the Frijol Cubá, which is a special big bean that grows in the mountains on vines, even wild, that is made into soups with some meat cooked with them, they grow almost to the size of small olives when cooked, and they have the best taste of all!

Just made this and it was so good!! Thank you for the recipe.

Ill have to give this a try.

Try cumin and oregano in beans too for variety.

I love the video, but I wish you would’ve shown how the beans transformed from a watery soup in the the pot (even after using the immersion blender) to having a very thick dark creamy sauce when you spoon them over the rice at the end. My beans always turn out like the watery soup. I’d love to learn how you get that final stage of creamy and thick.

I want to marry you.

This is in conflict with Dr Gundy saying lectins are bad.

you must not eat rice, wheat flour, potatoes if you have diabetes. so what do you suggest instead

I make a type of this but with butter beans. However, I DO add onions, chopped kale or spinach, and either green pepper or chopped carrot. And of course, over rice! Beans and rice...they're oh, so nice!

So glad I found you. I love your channel. Thank you for all your thorough work.

Finally, someone talking about the chemicals, including glyphosate, that are sprayed on our food while it’s being grown!!!
I LOVE the flavor of fresh cooked pinto beans! I buy organic pinto beans in 25 pound bags!

Kick the recipe up a notch, add three small smoked pork hocks!!

I ALWAYS soak my beans for 24 hours, then use an 8 quart Instant Pot, and cook 2 pounds of pinto beans, including the pork hocks

Here is your problem, broth?? Use real bones, any meat, any trim. Do not use boxed broth.

And please, no cubs of any kind. You just made your food unhealthy. Best of luck.

I'm from New Orleans. Every Monday is Red-Beans and Rice day for all the local restaurants. Definitely one of my favorites.

I've been doing pretty much exactly this every week for well over two years. I use a different spice profile, cumin and smoked paprika, but pretty much everything else is the same except for the Evo. I will give that a try, thanks.

Liked and subscribed! I’m making this tomorrow! Thank you!

The skin on that face and neck is....

I am from the deep South and these are the most delicious beans I have ever eaten. I used baby lima beans, and you are right, creamy , easy, and delicious. The baking soda soak is a game changer. Thank you for this video.
