I made this yesterday, mainly to freeze for lunches. I used 3/4 cup kidney beans, which I cooked on the stovetop, instead of the 3 different kinds of beans. Other than that, and using slightly less oil, I followed the recipe strictly. I did feel the flavor had mellowed today, 24 hours after cooking. However, I still feel, that while it is good, some additional kind of spice would have added to the flavor. Thank you for posting this recipe.
