Fantastic Black Bean Chili
This black bean chili is a nice and easy way to feed a crowd. I never knew what I was missing until my mother-in-law made this — everyone begged her for the recipe! Freezes well and easily doubled for a larger crowd. Top with your favorite shredded cheese.
Hunan Chicken and Vegetables
The owner of the Chinese restaurant in our town was nice enough to show me how to make his Hunan chicken (my favorite!) when they sold the restaurant in December, 2012. He used a wok over a huge gas flame in his restaurant kitchen and whipped this up in about 3 minutes! We home cooks have to make do with a saute pan, and a home stove won't cook nearly as fast as his wok on a flame.
