  1. I first found this recipe on Pinterest. Our family loves it just the way it is. I would suggest adding half of the salt, sugar and chili powder first and check the taste and add more from there since so many people have issues with the amount of sugar and salt. I find it needs the sugar to cut the acid and the salt for flavor but to each his own. Great recipe!
     
  2. This is a good start. My suggestions: Use 15 oz can of southwestern or ranch beans, not kidney beans. Sub 1 8 oz can of tomato sauce and 1 cup of stock for 2 cups water. Add 3 cloves of minced garlic and some sliced mushrooms to pot when you saute the onions and celery. Add 1/2 teaspoon of cumin. Start with 1/2 teaspoon of salt and check near end of cooking for taste. Cook with cover off after 15 minutes for thicker stew. I use this recipe with my changes with 1 lb of ground turkey.
     
  3. Good, but way too much sugar and salt called for. I put in half of what it called for, but that is far too much. Suggest no sugar or possibly 1/2 tbsp. or less. 1 tbsp. or less salt. Worchestershire sauce has salt in it too.
     
  4. My family loves this recipe, but I have found adding a full 2 tbsp of salt makes it entirely too salty. I would use a much smaller amount.
     
  5. Thank you for this healthy tasty lunch which was so easy to make. It did not state weather to drain or not to drain the beans, so I drained. One half-cup of water was left out so it would not be a lot of extra liquid left in the pan at the end of making this recipe. I will make this one again, thank you so much for posting it.

  1. Much less salt! Maybe 1-2 teaspoons versus 2 tablespoons.

Even though I am still young (25) Life experince has aged me alot. I learned to cook at both of my grandmother's knees (One southern American, one southern Irish) when I was about five. By ten I started collecting cookbooks and experinmenting on my own. As a latch key kid I cooked for my four younger brothers and sisters. My mom ran a small deli before she died when I was 17 so alot of my recies debuted there. Now I run my own catering Buisness. I am married to a wnderful man for five years now. I am a six year old daughter, sons who are four and three. We are also raising my 14 year old sister and nine Year old stepsister and have a 16 year old foster daughter, all of which love cooking with me. I am writing a cookbook with the hopes that when I pass I can leave my recipes for them My cookbook collection has now reached over 1200. Thank you for trying and reviewing my recipes.. <img src="http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/PACsticker-Adopted.jpg">
