$2.25-5.00 canned beans are not cheap. Plus it is hard to eat just them for a meal.

Really?
My local safeway has $1.19 cans of organic beans. Cheap and good.

Simple recipe for summer bean salad:

1 can of black eye peas (draining the extra liquid would be preferable but no mandatory)
1 small-medium onion or replace with half a bunch of scallions (green onions) sliced to small pieces
1 medium tomato sliced to small pieces
1/2 cucumber chopped to small pieces
EVOO 1-2 tbsp
juice of half a lemon or 1-2 tbsp vinegar (any tyoe you like)
S&P to taste.

Toss together and enjoy. Yummy and filling.

We're lucky in that regard as the region grows pineapples, bananas, mangoes, macadamia nuts, watermelon, avocado and strawberries. Our home vege garden grows passionfruit, beans, strawberries, tomatoes and chinese and fancy red lettuce.... We have a stand of banana trees.

roadside stalls sell pineapples 5 @ $1 in season. now. In 1 month it's strawberries ~ 500gm @ $2.

What to eat. :thumb:
