Otafuku Throwing Black Beans to Chase Away the Demons on New Year's Eve

Working on the concept of cheap food that you can eat day to day, long-term.  Let’s face it folks, unlike here in privileged woke-ster land, poor people in the world eat rice and beans.  A lot of them.  

So I keep rice and beans in quantity about.  15lbs of rice and 30 pounds of beans can take a body a long way.  I am seriously considering upping my base store to 50 of rice and 100 of beans.  That would probably get me past most (>95%) of the problems that might get thrown at me.  

Since I have other things around, I did a recipe today that tried for serious substance and a try at making something that would be good long term candidate for a “looking forward to dinner” kind of meal.

• 2 cups black beans

• 1 tbls stock concentrate

• 2 tsp five spice

• 1tsp sumac

• 1 tsp dried mint

• 2 tsp salt

• ⅓ cup dried onion

• 1 tsp dried garlic

• 5 cups of water

Put everything in a crock pot and turn on high.  Let cook for 6hours

• At six hours add

• 3/4 cup quinoa

• ¾ cup yeast flakes

• One chicken breast.

Cook for another two hours

Tasty and filling.  Might even be good for you
