It’s the Nine Days and on top of that…my fridge broke down. I had to scramble to find something for dinner and realized I had several canned veggies on hand. Chili of any kind is great, but this black bean one adds a change-of-pace to the otherwise accepted kidney bean variety.

1 can black beans

1 8oz can spaghetti sauce

8 oz of water

2 Tbsp ketchup

1 Tbsp sugar

1 tsp garlic powder

1 tsp paprika

1 tsp oregano

1 small bay leaf

1 Tbsp soy sauce

2 Tbsps bread crumbs (for thickening)

1 diced celery

1 small onion diced

Sauté onion with celery in Tbsp canola oil. Add tomato sauce, water and rest of ingredients. Let simmer 30 minutes (or longer if you want a settled flavour)

*This recipe works well in a slow cooker as you get more flavour. You may need to add more water so as not to dry out
