So easy it’s ridiculous. Recipe includes updated amounts for doubling or tripling. It requires affordable ingredients, you might even have all of them now (canned or dried beans). Is amenable to variations- I add a fair amount of New Mexican dried crushed chipotle, and double the herbs. I’m making it again today, and would calm this a ‘shelter in place’ friendly recipe.

This recipe was so easy to follow and the beans were amazing, pretty much had all the ingredients in the cupboard already.
