Hi Jane! With legumes, mostly I just cook a bunch of them in my 6 qt. crockpot, then freeze them in 3 cup containers (enough for a meal for my family). When they are frozen, I pop the blocks out and store them in ziploc (well, Superstore no name brand) bags in the freezer. Then I just take a block out for a meal. I put them in chili, in homemade tortillas, I flavour them with whatever and serve them on rice or noodles or with bread, with veggies. Flavourings: bacon bits, bits of cooked sausage or cooked hamburger, garlic, cooked onion, pepper flakes, cumin, anything that I sniff and decide would smell good in beans! Homemade BBQ sauce (mustard, ketchup, garlic, soya sauce). I make soup out of them, just adding water and whatever veggies I have on hand, then freeze the soup, too. I don't really have recipes anymore, I just think in terms of a protein serving, a grain serving, and two veggie servings for each person. Hope you are doing well!
