We loved this! It was quick to do and had such a lovely subtle flavor. I really don't like butterbeans, but they were great in this dish! I sort of mentally halved the recipe so I may have went wrong somewhere and ended up with a thicker stew than the recipe really would make, but we loved it thick. Thanks for sharing! Made for ZWT.

I'm not as active here anymore, but you can find me playing at the new recipezazz.com. I'm not a great photographer, but I love to take food photos with Freddy Cat to bring a smile to people's day. I love to cook and share good food with other people. I have a very large collection of cookbooks. I used to enjoy being able to look up recipes on Zaar by ingredients I had on hand. I miss the Zaar tag game community. Everyone was so nice, and it was super fun. Ah, the good ol' days.
