American-style Pork and beans

Recipe by: Azmina Govindji

Be the first to review it!

This is a dish from the Eastern seaboard of America, where the pork and beans are traditionally simmered slowly in an earthenware casserole. It is the kind of dish that you can prepare ahead and leave to bubble away while you tend to other things. Baked jacket potatoes and crusty bread are perfect for soaking up the delicious sauce.

Black Bean Dip

Recipe by: dramstad

Reviews(3)

A dip low in fat and calories, but with loads of flavour. Let the dip chill so the consistency thickens and the beans have time to meld with the spices. If you can't find tinned black beans, use dried or a tin of refried beans instead.

This is absolutely the best houmous I have ever had. It is great with toasted pitta bread. Add more lemon juice if the houmous tastes like it needs a lift.

Easy Low Fat Houmous

Recipe by: ELOVINGS

Reviews(6)

I make this houmous all the time. It only takes a few minutes to prepare, and it's healthier than shop-bought without the oil. Increase or decrease the ingredients as desired, especially the chillies! Serve with tortilla crisps, pitta triangles or fresh vegetables. Add more of the reserved chickpea liquid for a smoother dip.
