ZIPPY BEAN STEW

Zippy Bean Stew image

I found this recipe in the Light & Tasty magazine, and I make it at least once a week. A whole pot will due all week. It tastes even better when reheated. I changed it a little bit. It was a originally a slow cooker recipe, but since I'd rather cook it on stove top, it works the same. And takes a lot less time. Serve with cornbread or Recipe #51400.
