So I have fallen in love and if it were possible I would marry these beans. I love this recipe. Rich does and Atlas does. The three littles don't. They think it is too spicy. When I read the recipe the first time I filed it away, knowing that I would love it. But then I didn't make it for a long time. When I saw it again I made it the next day. Then the next and now it is weekly. It reheats perfectly for lunch the next day. It is great with eggs for breakfast and of course tastes as if it was meant for a corn tortilla. I lOVE these beans. I made them again this afternoon for dinner. I don't use bread crumbs and I have made it with every type of bean (ok almost), my favorite is the pinto. I also make my own beans by soaking them over night and cooking for most of the day in a crockpot on low!
On a side note, I took my first exam today. Then I planned to get right back into studying for my other two and finishing a take home exam and starting another. I didn't. I completely blew off everything and wasted time and then made this cake. Sometimes I just cannot not bake.
We have also had a birthday and totally broke all the rules (mine and the landlords... shhh) and got a gecko for this birthday boy. I mean, how could I not? I totally hate caged animals. Fish included and we have 3. Life can be compromising.

I love crock pot beans and caged animals. I was just explaining to some people about how it made me sad to see fish in a bowl the house that I couldn't do it again. They looked at me like I was weird. I am going to try your recipe. So I stopped soaking my beans and they still get done in the crock pot. Mayocoba beans are my current fave. Miss you so much! Hope your other tests are going great. Leif is still as cute as ever. I wish you could all come visit. It has been way too long!
I met I don't live caged animals, obviously.
I got you! We miss you too sooo much!
Mayocoba are my fav too!

Thank cake mold is amazing! Happy Birthday Leif!!
oh little sweet cookie Leif! mwah!

We tried these beans tonight, YUM. Everything I've ever tried that you make is perfecto. The chipotle, garlic, chardy cheese combo makes it unique and yet it tastes like comfort food. These beans are going on Huevos Rancheros tomorrow. Love, cristy
