    Wow, this sounds sooooo good; going to the store today and stocking up. Love making a really big pot and freezing half for work nights. Thanks!

    Alright. . . I tried it and guess what? Loved it! Yep! I can not believe just how much this recipe makes. It is funny though. I'm in the kitchen cooking several things at once and I had just gotten home from the grocery store an hour earlier with a few cans of stuff out on the counter still. The recipe calls for the kidney and pinto beans and I accidently open two cans of kidney beans and a can of pinto beans. The pot was so full, I think I had a sixteenth of an inch before the pot overflowed. Teach me to pay attention. Your the best and thank you for an awesome recipe Jaie! :D
