how to cook beans, the easy way



This is for my dear sweet friend who confided in me the other day that she doesn't know how to cook beans. So here's what you do.



Slow cooker. Water (a lot). Beans (a handful makes a cup or so).



Set to high if you have 5 hours. Set to low if you have 12. Cover up n' walk away.



You'll never buy canned beans again.

So simple -- I love it! Thanks for sharing. Just to be sure, no need to pre-soak, no need to measure, and any type bean will do? This is awesome :)

Now that I know how to cook them, I need recipes. We just don't eat a lot of beans.

And, if you are in a real hurry, throw in boiling water instead! It'll cut off an hour plus of cooking time.

Wow, didn't know it was so easy! I have beans that I haven't known what to do with, now I do. Saying goodbye to canned beans!
