    Made this today. Soooooo good! I accidentally put in a 1/2 tsp of cayenne and paprika. I liked the extra spice :)

    This doesn’t really work in the standard jars "unless" you double the recipe. There is otherwise not enough volume for the blades to work on… I ended up having to transfer the contents to my little cuisinart to get the job done.
    On the plus side it is a Great recipe.. especially with a few shreds of roasted red pepper added

    You don’t cook the beans but canned beans are already cooked. If you buy dry beans a soak + cook them yourself it’s much cheaper and healthier (than using the preservatives from the canned beans).
