Beans

I've been trying to empty out the fridge so I can create some space for the ThanksGiving madness.
We reached a point that seemed that there was nothing in the fridge to eat besides a frozen bag of shrimp, a bag of dry beans that I brought from our farm in Portugal, and couple lost leaves of organic baby spinach. Well, the meal was done right there, I combined all of the ingredients (after boiling the beans for almost 1 hour and a half, since they were dry and I haven't soak them), on a skillet where I cooked a tomato base with onions and garlic in olive oil. It would have been lovely with a touch of hot sauce but was afraid that would be too much for my toddler assistant. Nonetheless it came out delicious.

Hi. I love "feijoada de marisco". It is also good with further molluscous, and spaghetti as an option. Red bell pepper is a good ingredient to this recipe.
Shredded celery or parsley on top of it would not be a bad idea, as well.

Keep on!
