beans

Down South, we call this a sitting salad, says Carla. It can sit on the summer picnic table without wilting so it’s the perfect potluck dish.

Homemade salsa verde, refried beans and seasoned ground beef come together with crisp, refreshing toppings for the ultimate tostada.

This healthy, vegetarian "souper soup" is also super-satisfying and easy to make.

With the help of a pressure cooker to soften beans, this budget-friendly soup can be made from scratch in less than half the usual time.
