What's for Dinner? 13 Bean TexMex with Polenta

I actually made this easy peasy lemon squeezy dish Meatless Monday and haven't gotten a chance to post it yet. Taste the rainbow! No, Skittles is not an ingredient, but isn't it so colorful? I usually like to include a little bit of poetry with my recipes, like the rosemary chicken or the lavender brownies. Herbs are the ingredients of poetry; but beans? All I can think of is "Beans, beans, good for the heart...." Sorry folks.

So easy! So filling! So yummy!


13 Bean Tex Mex on Polenta Recipe (GF, DF, Vegan)


Ingredients:
13 Bean Soup Mix (I used Bob's Red Mill)
1 can vegetable broth

1 can diced tomatoes seasoned with chilies

1 tsp minced garlic

small can corn or mexi-corn

1/2 red onion, chopped & sauteed
1 jar of your favorite salsa
polenta (optional)

1 avocado (optional)

Soak beans overnight according to instructions. Strain. Add all ingredients except polenta & avocado to crock pot. Simmer for 8-9 hours.

Slice polenta, warm it in pan or microwave & stack- polenta/bean mixture/polenta/avocado/bean mixture. Enjoy with tortilla chips. 

Of course, if DF GF Vegan is not a concern for you, (luckyyyy) by all means, add cheese!
