Austin - Style Black Beans



Austin-Style Black Beans at Miz Helen's Country Cottage
There is something special about visiting the capital of Texas. Austin has an energy that can't really be explained but only felt. The music, the food, the history and the people all a part of what makes Austin a very memorable place to visit. Lisa Fain  has really brought that Austin Style into her Black Bean recipe. There is nothing better than walking into the house or a restaurant to the smell of a pot of beans simmering on the stove.

Enjoy Your Beans !

The chipotle chiles and the cilantro give these black beans a very special flavor, that can often times be found on many a Tex-Mex plate. I am going to serve my black beans with another one of Lisa Fain's recipes.
