Texas baked black beans and fried polenta


First just buy your polenta. You can make it if you wish but go someplace else for the recipe.
I used cilantro and green chili polenta and pan fried it in a little butter.
Baked black beans.
I used one bag of dried black beans
cook them in a crock pot all day.
Chopped one small white onion
one red bell pepper
A can of hunts fire roasted tomatoes
one can of green chili
couple slices of chopped cooked bacon
mix it all together
add salt and pepper to taste
add cumin to your taste
put in a casserole dish and bake in a 350 degree oven for 30 minutes.
I put a little shredded cheese on top.

I will update you and let you know to date I am down to 128.5 pounds.

That looks really good! Great job on your weight loss! Are you trying to cook more vegetarian meals?

No, it just seems to work out cheaper that way.
