Mayocoba bean Soup

[Guest guest]

I found these dried beans in the Mexican section at Wal-mart. They taste

similiar to Pinto's, but way better and creamier.

Thanks to Donna for telling me about these delicious beans. We had these today

for Father's Day, along with Cornbread, Collard Greens, Fresh veggie sticks, and

Tomato Dill and Garlic Pasta. Yellow Cake with Fudge Frosting was for dessert.

Yours to Enjoy,

Judy

pot on the burner, closed, for 30 minutes.

 

Open the pressure cooker and stir in a 1/2 t. oil and close the pressure cooker.

Bring to a boil and then turn down to med low heat for 20 minutes.

 

Open the pressure cooker and add 1 t. salt and 1 T. Better than

Boullion(vegetable flavor) and stir well to mix in.

 

1 carrot, chopped small

1 onion, diced

2 stalks celery, diced

4 cloves of garlic, sliced thin

1 t. oil

Those beans sound interesting, Judy.

I will have to look for some next time we

shop. Thanks for the great recipe and the
