Since I've decided to try eating more non-meat protein, I've been buying lots of beans. Right now, I'm trying a new recipe. I chopped up onion, green pepper, garlic, and celery and threw them in a pot with a little olive oil to cook for a little while. Then I put in a carton of chicken stock, about 2 cups of navy beans, a cut-up chicken breast, and a bay leaf. It smells absolutely heavenly in my apartment. I'm planning to add a can of diced tomatos after it's cooked for a while. :biggrin1: I don't know how it will taste, but it sure smells good.

Sounds great. I will have to try this. I am always looking for something different. Donna

Beans are an excellent source of protein. They are also band friendly.
