Guest guest Posted May 3, 2005 Report Share Posted May 3, 2005 Thanks for this recipe, Beth. i am definately going to try this one out. i have a few cans of chipotles in adobo and didn't know what to do with them; now i do. *s* Also, you mentioned something about chorizo being in the original recipe. Have you ever tried the vegan alternative on the market called soyrizo? It is really yummy. Have a nice day. ~ pt ~ Coming or going, always at home. ~ Zen saying ~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~> replying to this digest post: Beth Renzetti <elmothree2000 a YUM recipe: Fiery Chipotle Baked Beans This is adapted from Cooking Light (Leave the chorizo out of the original recipe, lol).

Guest guest Posted May 3, 2005 Report Share Posted May 3, 2005 You're welcome! Wanna know an eensy secret? I'm not a strict vegetarian so I'd just use regular chorizo. Yeah, I'm a heathen. Working on it, tho. Something about food replacements buggers me. Maybe I'll get used to it. I'll letcha know. I'm just so happy to have found a recipe worth sharing!! I've also got a chipotle sauce as well which is good for using up an open can of chipotles! Off to look for it... You have a nice day as well!

Hmmmm, well Bethie I for one didn't want to hear that 'eensy secret' of yours today LOL The point was well made: have you tried Soyrizo??? I guess not since you say you don't like the idea of food replacements - but it was a kind suggestion and it might help you get over your prejudice against replacing me*t with something else that is non-vegetarian. It's worth a shot, don't you think? Me, I don't like faux meetz much - but then I don't like me*t anymore either LOL Still, if I see soyrizo I'll give it a try - ya never know! Firm tofu marinated in all sorts of things including chillies would be my back-up position for this recipe. I still haven't seen Soyrizo, ya see. Any Canadians out there who have seen it here? Tried it?? Pat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 4, 2005 Report Share Posted May 4, 2005 I haven't seen soyrizo, but I have tried tofurky Italian sausage (excellent slow cooked in pasta sauce) and Beer Brats (a bit bland and rubbery). I haven't tried their Kielbasa yet, but it should make a good addition to kale and potatoe soup or white bean soup!

It'd have to be pretty spicy for me to get around the idea of eating it even as 'fake'. But the soyrizo appeals - perhaps because, very sad to say and admit, someone posting about the real thing gave me a momentary pang about a certain dish that had certain associations for me. Very odd, but there it was. A good thing that we don't permit such talk on the list, eh? LOL Otherwise I'd be knocking on every store manager's door in some kind of frantic odyssey around town to find something which I might not even like!!!! pat Dr Patricia M.

Guest guest Posted May 4, 2005 Report Share Posted May 4, 2005 I'm a newbie on the list, but here's my two cents on the soyrizo. It's great stuff. It's especially good in meatless chili-I've fixed it for friends who were amazed that it didn't have any meat in it. I also added some of the pre-packaged soyburger last time and it was also great. The soyrizo is a bit tougher to get to try to brown, if that's how you like it. I've found that you have to put it into a bowl first and break it up fairly fine, then sprinkle it in a shallow layer in a hot pan with oil. I've browned it a bit and then added some chopped pepper and other veggies, then put it over brown rice. A nice, warm winter/fall meal. Same thing for burrito/taco stuffing.

Nicely flavored, I thought, and very quick to cook. I had it with rice, and it was very yummy! VERY filling though! GIna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
