15 bean soup / Morningstar Farms

[anonemouse 1]

I just got back from the grocery store. I got a bag of HamBeens 15-bean Soup mix. Has anyone tried making this? I am trying to get myself to eat more Beans, for an alternative to meat. I don't normally like them, so I'm hoping that I'll like this.

I also got a couple of types of Morningstar Farms veggie meats. I got the chik patties and the veggie patties. Anyone know if they're any good>

Laurend, I have made the soup you are taking about. But, I love Beans. Could eat them 2-3 times a week. My favorite meal(or was) is cornbread and red beans. God, I love that meal. Rather have that than steak!!!

I'm really hoping that I'll like it, so that I could make that and have a bunch of ready-made meals. I'm not fond of cooking meat when I'm at home. I'm lazy about cooking unless I happen to be cooking for several people. Plus, cooking for just myself makes me paranoid about the doneness of the meat, so I don't enjoy eating it.

Sometimes, I really think that I could easily become a vegetarian.

I haven't tried those. One thing I really do like a great deal are Morning Star Buffalo Wings. They are boneless :rose: but a little too hot for me so I dip them in honey.

Just never ever get fake MS pork, it's beyond disgusting. Sausage patties or links.... really seriously gross.

I've made the bean Soup you are talking about - it's great - I don't use the artifical meat seasoning if that is the one you got - but I love Beans also - any type of dried bean and I'm in heaven - put in some carrots and onion and a can of tomatoes - it's really good

:rose:

Soak the Beans in Water over night before cooking.

Seriously, just do it. :rose:

Boca burgers are best with cheese, lettuce, Tomato, onion, and MUSTARD! Lottsa mustard!

Yummmmm

Any of them are good if you know what to do with them.

Well, except MS pork crap. OMG that's just awful. There is NO way to cover up the texture and flavor, they just suck.

If this turns out disgusting, y'all are getting the blame! :guess

It will be YUMMY as long as there are no LIMA Beans. Gross....

For some reason (I have absolutely NO idea why), I was about to say that anything would be improved with an addition of choc/pb Protein. Then I thought about it. THAT would be utterly and completely disgusting. Imagine, chocolate and Peanut Butter flavored bean Soup with hamhocks and tomatos. Yack! :phanvan :rose:
