Hello!
So, after spending two weeks in PerĂº and five weeks at diabetes camp, I'm ready to post something new! Tonight, I really wanted to recreate a refried bean dish an Egyptian cook at camp made for me (since I was vegetarian), but I didn't want to eat it on chips. So, this is what I made! It was actually really delicious!
I used...
- 2 tomatoes
- 1 yellow onion
- 2 cloves of garlic
- 1 Cup chopped mushrooms
- 1 Cup Chopped Lettuce
- 1 16 oz Can of Whole Pinto Beans
- 1/2 Cup Nutritional Yeast Gravy (see other recipe)
- 3 Tbsp Oil
- Heat oil over low heat in a large skillet
- Add spices; I used cumin, curry, and salt
- Add chopped onion and minced garlic
- When the onion and garlic is starting to caramelize, add chopped mushrooms and tomatoes
- Raise heat to medium
- Cook until most of the juice from the tomatoes has cooked out
- Add beans (rinced) and let cook for another five minutes
- Add nutritional yeast gravy and cook until all the ingredients are mixed
- Serve on a plate with chopped lettuce on top
Until next time!
