For our other meals, we turned to Beans. I've never been a fan of beans, as my grandfather used to say
"Beans, beans, the musical fruit...," but with Laura such a big fan I thought I'd give them a try again. So the options we tried out were Black Beans, Butter Beans and Ranch Style Beans. If you mash the Ranch Style Beans with some diced tomatoes and mix in some cheese, they're like a wonderful chili you can serve on rice. I think these were my favorite, but it turned out I loved them all, much to my surprize.

A Week of Pork and Beans
We stared off the week with a Pork Stir Fry, one of the better that we've made. I think the pork was originally going to be pork chops, but as is the nature of cooking, things changed into something better as we went along. I could eat this all the time!
