Allrecipes Community Tips and Praise "I've used this as a base recipe for years now," says melpaco. "It's wonderful as-is, but is easy to customize depending on what you might have on hand or to your taste." "This was so delicious," raves another Allrecipes community member, Pikklls. "I added a teaspoon of jarred, chopped jalapeno peppers, and I mashed about a half can of the beans before adding back in just to thicken it. I would serve this to guests and I know they would be impressed!" "First time making this was a hit," according to Ltdebel. "I used a mix of Northern Beans and Cannellini beans. Added a bit of extra garlic and cayenne, but otherwise stuck to the recipe." Editorial contributions by Corey Williams Cook Mode (Keep screen awake) Ingredients 1x 2x 4x Oops! Something went wrong.
