I tried this after reading about it on Planted By Streams blog. I think she links to even another blog. You would like Planted By Streams - she is an Auburn alum and pastor's wife. Check it out. I now freeze beans in 1.5 cups per plastic bag which is equivilant to one can of beans - makes recipes that call for a can of beans easy! Love your blog!

I'm excited to try this, and also to make your hummus. I don't particularly care for Black Eyed Peas, but this will be a great way to sneak them into all of our diets :) Hope you and your cute family are doing well!The York Familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08043565835047223710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-863060918002862962.post-82382403862843252602011-10-03T13:42:46.634-05:002011-10-03T13:42:46.634-05:00Huh!

I've been looking for a no-fuss way to cook dried beans and this is just perfect. Totally going to try it this week, especially now that the weather is getting colder. Plus, the crockpot is my best friend on days when I'm busy at work but still need to feed the family. Btw, your blog looks lovely and I'll look forward to checking it out more often. Hope all is well with you and your family!Lauren "Dammon" Richnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-863060918002862962.post-3444562248621959612011-10-03T13:21:28.144-05:002011-10-03T13:21:28.144-05:00Thank you thank you!
