[email protected]This recipe was a total fail. The braid fell apart when I tried to transfer it to the baking dish, and the beef was tough and dry. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

[email protected]The beef and bean braid was a bit bland for my taste. I think I would have liked it more if I had added some more spices or herbs. The braiding technique was a bit tricky, but I got the hang of it after a few tries.

[email protected]Just made this for dinner and it was delicious! I had to make a few substitutions because I didn't have all the ingredients on hand, but it still turned out great. The beef and beans were so tender and flavorful, and the cheese added a nice gooeyness
