Add a can of undrained black beans, a dash of sherry and a bay leaf.

Bring to a boil, turn down and simmer for 1/2 hour.

Serve on top of white rice to accompany fish tacos, fajitas, grilled chicken or something with a Central American/Mexican/Caribbean vibe.

If you want black bean soup, remove the bay leaf, add a bit of water and blend until smooth with an immersion blender. Serve with a heaping tablespoon of white rice added on top of the soup. Let the diner mix it in.
Mmmmmm. That sounds good!
Thanks!

Oh, yes it will. Pickles too. It's a special skill handed down from father to son.
Pop loved pickles and peanut butter. He'd have Kippers in mustard on the side and wash it down with Sauerkraut juice.

You just keep on telling yourself that.
Sure, you can get a chunk of it to sit on a banana or a pickle, but you're not smearing it on. That's like trying to stack BB's in the wind. That's like a squirrel trying to take an avocado seed up a tree. That's like trying to explain economics to a liberal.

Oh, WTF? Do you have to argue about everything? Dude, I've done it. More than once. Smear it, daub it, whatever. Bananas and peanut butter ROCKS!

If you like peanut butter and bananas, you might like peanut butter and pineapple.
If you don't have fresh pineapple, you can get the canned sliced pineapple. Get some dense grainy bread, smear on peanutbutter, put on a slice of pineapple to make a sandwich.
Yum!

Here is Florence's recipe for North Italian style lasagna, no tomatoes anywhere in it. I guarantee it is to die for. It is an MS Word doc file
