Ingredients

1/3 cup kidney beans
1/3 cup chickpeas (garbanzo beans)
1/3 cup black beans
3 medium tomatoes coarsely chopped
1 small onion coarsely chopped
1 banana black pepper finely chopped
1/2 cup green beans fresh
1/2 cup zucchini cubed
4 cloves garlic pressed
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon cumin ground
2 each bay leaves
1 x salt and black pepper to taste
1/4 cup red wine

Directions

Wash and soak beans overnight (I cooked mine the next day on low in the slow cooker while I was at work) drain and rinse beans before adding to pot.

In a medium saucepan sauté onion and garlic in water until tender.

Add fresh green beans and banana peppers, continue to sauté for 3 minutes.

Be sure to keep track of the water so it doesn't dry out.

Just before the water completely dries up add the zucchini and sauté 2 minutes ( the zucchini should add some moisture to the pot, but if it doesn't add more water just to keep from scorching veggies).

Add fresh tomatoes, beans, wine, spices and cook until this thickens and the tomatoes have made a nice sauce.

As I am on a restricted salt diet I did not add salt to mine, however, I did add some sweetener to the whole batch.

Even without salt this dish was very good.

I haven't tried it with salt substitute, so I don't know how it would work.

The nutritional rundown on this dish is quite good and it taste good too

Chicken Salad

This is very good. It becomes "Excellent" in my opinion, if you take out the water chestnuts, and sautee the chicken in butter and the curry. Then add the almonds and sautee. Put that in a bowl and add the rest of the ingredients. This is very tasty even if you can only add the grapes or the pineapple, but really good with both. People who don't like curry, and those who don't like fruit in their meat, LOVE this. It is very refreshing and a great treat for visitors who just had to travel on plane (or for any other dehydrated guests.) :)
