Vanilla-Scented Rice Pudding
Frijoles de la Olla

Sweet pinto beans simmered in a rich, garlicky broth are comforting and make a delicious complete meal. I adapted the recipe from vegan chef Roberto Martin’s book, Vegan Cooking for Carnivores. Preparing the meal in a jar ahead of time makes it really easy to whip up this dish. It borders on a soup, which I love, and gets better after it sits for a while.

Wonderfully easy to follow but i would add extra time (about 5min.) to the beans. This came out firm to bite and im used to beans being completely soft and mashable with a fork.
Perfect !!
What if beans are pre-soaked?
beans came out great! I added an extra 5 mins as the recommendation from one of the reviewers, beans came out perfect!
The recipe calls for a jar size of 3.5-4 cups, but calls for 6 cups of water/broth and all the other ingredients, how does that equate? Also, why not just put everything directly into the pot and skip the jar?
