Receta Leftover 2-Bean Stew
A quick bite using odds & ends was WAY too delicious not to post. Forget 8-bean and even 18-bean soups - 2 cans of beans, a few veggies and a little smoked sausage turned a toss-off dish into a tasty winner!
I had no intention when I threw this together to share it with anyone other than a couple of hungry mouths in the kitchen. But the comments were so persuasively positive that I was compelled to post it here. I was scrounging through the pantry, 'fridge & freezer for whatever came to hand when this recipe evolved.
Granted, you will probably not have some of these ingredients readily available - but it would be worth while to try to obtain and replicate this dish - especially with colder weather creeping in.
This can also be kicked up with a few dashes of your favorite hot sauce at table.
This is what we threw together. Let me know what you come up with!
