notes & tips
- With a fried egg on top this becomes a very complete meal — protein, carbs, and fiber.
- Cheese makes it better. Shredded cheddar melts into the hot beans nicely.
- This is legitimate food. Millions of people eat this daily. Don't knock it until you try it.
- On a baked potato: Same concept — beans on a potato instead of toast.
- Any bread works. White, wheat, even a hot dog bun.
