Please excuse the beans, I was doing laundry, cooking, packing hubby's lunch and trying to get a shower all at the same time. I kept checking the beans and waiting for the water to come to a boil, suddenly I noticed a hissing sound and realized they had boiled dry. Sigh.

Anyway, chicken cacciatore, brown rice and lima beans. Hubby picked the beans, I didn't think they were a good choice with rice, oh well. What is every one else having?

Seems like there's a bean theme goin on tonight. I won't continue with it though cuz I'm not much of a bean fan. But here it is....almost 7pm and I'm wondering....what am I going to cook for dinner? I asked Dennis if he wanted to go out. He shook his head no Sad

. I might just make myself a pb&j on toast and call it a night LOL

PattiT, are lima beans the same thing as horse beans?
Tango, yummiiiiiiii. I got to try that one. Thanks for sharing the recipe
Danielle, I didn't make anything with beans. Made a quick spaghetti with bacon, roquefort cheese and basil.
