Mexican Bean Recipes

Combine black beans with fresh vegetables to make a fiber-rich vegetarian friendly salad.

Save your left-overs! This is an ultra-thick, cheesy, spicy Mexican-style soup that can be served three ways: in a bowl, over veggies, or with tuna.

quick, easy and hearty

This is a quick, light, refreshing salad. I found it on allrecipes.com. I omit the salt. You can alter it to your preference and use whatever you have on hand for the veggies.

My take on Chili

From the blog fANNEtasticfood.com.

My sister's soup... we eat it once a week. Yum. You can do this in a slow cooker, or use canned beans, if in a hurry.

The texture and after-taste are amazing!! You can add tortillas with it for that extra mexican touch. Enjoy!

A simple Mexican soup. This makes enough for several servings - keep in the fridge for a quick, low calorie meal.

This recipe is intended to be used with pork chops (or chicken), but you can make it by itself for a tasty, meatless entrée or side dish. The calorie count does not include the meat because it is easier for me to track separately (I don't need to make 6 servings of pork for dinner, and I don't want to divide up open cans of beans and tomatoes).

I used smoked paprika and just used enough water to cover, salt & pepper to taste.

A heavily modified adaptation of a recipe found online. More vegetables have been added for that extra heartiness. Beans for extra filling power and protein.
