[callout] By any beans necessary
We used black beans for a visual punch, but any bean, lentil, or legume will make a great substitute. And if dried beans are your preference, soak overnight, drain, and cook in a large saucepan with enough water to cover by 3 inches. Then add to cooked sweet potato. [/callout]Advertisement
