Mild Curry Pinto Bean Soup Recipe-for a cold winter's night~

Curried Pinto Bean Recipe (very forgiving to different ingredients)

Soak two cups pinto beans (or kidneys) over night. Dump water and pour more water over beans. Boil the beans in sufficient water..(you can use part veggie or chicken stock). Saute onion garlic carrot red&yellow peppers, a cup of cubed leftover butternut squash. When the beans begin to soften..(around an hour)..place the sauteed veggies into the pot. Add whatever seasonings you like. I used pink himalayan sea salt, tumeric, cumin, good green mild curry, dash of cayenne, fresh parsley...And more liquid, depending on how thick a soup you like. I like mine almost like a stew! At end, if you have..a nice handful of fresh kale or baby green peas would be a lovey addition. I added a few splashes of coconut milk to make it creamy. Bon Appetit!
