Black Bean Tamale Pie Recipe


Black Bean Tamale Pie Recipe
This is a recipe that I discovered in one of those booklets that you see at the supermarket checkouts. It is a long time favorite. The dish takes a bit of time to make but it is worth the effort.

I like about half of all the black bean recipes in the world, and this definitely falls on the good half. Good post!
