Love the tips above for reducing gassiness. It's just not a problem when I start with dry beans. Also, the taste and texture is MUCH better, I feel, when starting with dry beans. I make big batch on the weekend, and freeze or refrigerate the left-overs, using them as needed.

I used two and a half roasted shredded chicken breast, chicken broth, fresh kale, 2 cans of drained/rinsed white navy beans, fresh garlic, onion, fresh okra, lemon pepper,fresh carrots, fresh celery, organic pasta shells, sea salt and smoked cayenne pepper. I cannot stay out of the pot because it is so delicious!! I made a great soup today that I call “chicken everything soup”.

Just puree the beans with a stock of your choice being careful not to use too much liquid. Pour over mash potatoes, vegetables, toasted bread etc. Black bean to replace traditional gravies and sauces.
