I took these ingredients
Did you notice I tried to find the healthiest looking franks I could find at the super store? That counts for something, right? :) |
And I made this!
Yes, I know. It's so impressive! I've really out-done myself this time! LOL! Hey! It was cheap and easy! What can I say?
To make it, I soaked one pound of pintos. I poured off the soaking water and then added water to about an inch above the beans and put them on the stove to cook. After the beans came to a boil, I added a slightly rounded tablespoon of Better Than Bouillon beef base. (The next time I make them, I am going to try using only half a tablespoon. The beans turned out a little too salty for our taste.) When the beans were done, I chopped five franks and added them to the beans. I cooked the beans a little longer to heat the franks through. Then I served with homemade cornbread and grapes!
So there is one of my simple, inexpensive meals! I welcome your inexpensive ideas! :)
Until we meet again, may you be blessed!

ReplyDeleteGarlic Eggs and Pasta is our simple frugal favorite!
:) That's sounds similar to a dish we like also, but I would like to know how you make your eggs and pasta.
