I've made these zesty beans many times for picnics and potlucks-they're hearty and zippy with chili pepper and the extra flavor of lentils in the ban mix. The recipe can be made ahead and heated before serving. -Arthur Morris, Washington, Pennsylvania

HOMESTEAD COWBOY BEANS



Homestead Cowboy Beans image

I have an enormous family and all of the men go trail riding several times a year and these beans are one of the things they look forward to. My aunts and I put together their favorite combination several years ago, and have it ready at their camp, and they are some happy cowboys! You can mix different beans to your liking (lima, kidney, etc.), but the boys in our family like this mixture the best.
