[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not the OP, but I see the recommendation for bean and rice dishes all the time as low-priced options, and I just have to ask -- how do you all deal with the gas? I'm not joking. I am impossible to be around if I have a dish that is mostly beans. Is it just me? To the OP: fruits and vegetables might be a way for you to stay organic, but get something cheaper. Also, there's a yearly investment in membership fess but maybe joining Costco would be worth it for you (perhaps you can split the membership with a friend?) [/quote] Buy dried, presoak, drain, and rinse the beans. Cook, drain, and rinse. THEN add to your recipe. Or if you are doing lentils, just presoak, drain, and rinse, you don't precook those. Also, your system adjusts after a while.[/quote]
