Made for Zaar World Tour 8. Absolutely delicious! Wow. So easy to make as well. Also, the bean mix was a bit much for the sized dish I managed to find, but it turned out to be amazing just as a dip, so definately worth while keeping this recipe as a two for one! My housemates totally loved this and I made a lot of embarrasing noises while eating. Thanks for sharing!

<p>I'm a brand new single mommy to my tiny perfect human, so thank you to everyone who takes the time to make and review my recipes - I try to send a zmail to each of you, but baby girl has a different idea.</p>
<p>I'm a good ol' prairie girl from Canada with one side of the family being Ukrainian/Slovakian and the other side is German/Russian. In other words, when we cook we take carbs, cover them in more carbs, fry'em and serve it smothered in onions and cream. <br />No pro chefs in my family, just grandmas and aunts and cousins and a mom that had me pinching perogies and stuffing strudel before I could form a complete sentence. <br />The most dreaded / laughed at phrase I say is, So last night, I invented this thing for supper... - I would probably publish more recipes if I actually remembered everything I put in or had an idea of how much I added!!</p>
