A few changes and one in particular: coconut oil for vegetable oil. I chose fried beans which were cooked in a Crock Pot and in the meantime I browned the onion until crispy throwing in the garlic the final minute. Drained the beans then stirred in the onion/garlic and other ingredients. The directions say to use water to thin the beans but it is much better to use the cooking bean liquid since water is only going to dilute. Prepared for CQ 2017.
