OUR FIRST REAL RECIPE POST

ok, so the other day I made a most delightful snack (not for the vegetarians out there, of course) and since we've been talking about posting our recipes up here for so long, I'm going to DO IT. here goes:

BEANS 'N BACON

(Crazy, I know.)

What you need:

can of beans (preferably black)

some bacon (at least 5 pieces)

optional: The Three C's: cumin, coriander, cayenne pepper

1. pour out most of the bean goo and cook in small saucepan, covered, over low heat, for at least 15 minutes. if you'd like, add the three c's. Not too much, just a little. Maybe a little more cumin than the others. (**black beans and cumin go really well together)

2. in the meantime, cut up the bacon into really small pieces, the smallest you can do. (This is before cooking it!)

3. when you're about 10 minutes into the bean cook time, throw them bacon bits into a pan and cook 'em up real nice. Crunch factor is up to you; I prefer them on the chewier side, but to each his own.

4. When the bacon's looking near-done, throw in those yummy, slightly gooey beans. Cook them altogether for a few more minutes, getting that delicious sizzling bacon fat all over the beans.

5. EAT!

(fucking delicious, right?)
