5 *DELICIOUS* BEAN recipes! Cooking with BEANS!

[@catherinemay723]

Steven always cracks me up everytime

[@barbaram5787]

I agree Gracie Lou should get a piece of cheese in every video. Love seeing her.

[@kathymobley4283]

I love tomato sandwiches and I always toast the bread. It's the best.

[@pamreneick464]

Yes babrbara but that teeny tiny piece of cheese ???? Cmon give the girl some cheese! cheese

[@agirly1503]

Yes for cheese! 🐈 no for cilantro 🎉😊😅

[@rosemarydoran9907]

I disagree! Gracie Lou needs multiple pieces of 🧀 in each video! (At least one piece per meal prepared).

[@beckyhines3814]

I agree with the rest. Gracie Lou should have cheese a piece of cheese with every meal (at least the ones we see on video). I've always liked the smell of baked beans I just have never liked the taste. Nothing better than a tomato sandwich especially in the summer time. By the way please don't do the mukbang. I use to watch a video a while back and I stopped when she started doing mukbang. It wasn't bad enough with chewing online but she smacked her lips loudly. Ugh. I've been thinking about growing herbs. Are they easier than vegetables? I had no luck with tomatoes.

[@jayndough68]

I LOVE when you do videos that spotlight a certain ingredient. ❤. Beans it is! You and Steven do a great job! Thank you so much!

[@susanprock7565]

Love Cilantro. I actually fix a spring mix salad , add lots of cilantro , avocado and use salsa - lime juice as my dressing .

[@regenaguinn]

Made the baked bean casserole last night. My husband LOVES it and announced “it’s a keeper”👏 I tweaked it. I had brown molasses instead of brown sugar, then a tsp of fresh jalapeños instead of bell pepper. But folks, it’s that real bacon that’s the crowning glory. Keep it up Mandy!👋

[@MrsAlmaTrumble]

Even tho I can't eat beans. I'm here watching. I enjoy watching you and getting meal inspiration from you.

[@mariaserpa-gauvin8405]

We love cilantro! Loved the comment about having cheese at every meal for sweet Gracie Lou .... totally agree! Love all the bean recipes! We too love beans

[@CookingwithJesusJ321]

This is so great because my husband is vegan and when I make us dinner I always look for recipes with beans in them! So looking forward to making some of these meals. Great job, Mandy! ❤

[@Linda-em8qv]

This was great. I just had to leave out the jalepeno.

[@donnasnead6727]

I love tomato and mayo sandwiches I also will add a slice of cheese and for a little crunch I sometimes will slice cucumber and put it in the sandwich so good ! Love y’all !

[@virginiaallisonpeck2517]

I love tomato sandwiches too ❤😂❤🎉

[@deborah2302]

Add 🥓 bacon, too!!

[@amygirard6641]

Everything looks so good! Also, I love Steven's reaction to your dishes! You two are so much fun!

[@amybell5181]

Oh my goodness you all are such a delight to watch makes my day so much brighter💛

[@Kim-Unearthed]

These are great, thank you! I rinse my rice, too, very thoroughly. My reason is because getting off all that extra starch keeps the rice from coming out mushy and keeps the grains separated. I do it every time and get absolutely perfect rice because of it!

[@dianadunham6691]

My husband just had his first ONION and tomato sandwich of the season. It was a Walla Walla sweet onion, of course, since we live in Walla Walla. He LOVES onion and tomato sandwiches. The vegetarian enchilada tortilla stew and baked bean casserole are on my list of dishes to make.

[@lauramaze5354]

Love tomato sandwiches, Steven! Try it on very lightly toasted bread aling with the mayo, salt, pepper.and oregano, you won't be disappointed. The lightly toasted bread somehow takes it to a new level. One of summer's greatest pleasures. Yum!! Love you guys ❤

[@Amy-yv5oh]

Mandy and your husband are great. I'm excited myself. I love trying to add bean recipes.

[@wendelinharrison9571]

Team Cilantro all the way!!! I can’t grow it tho’ …it takes one look at me and drops dead! Love you Gracie!🧀

[@emily--m]

You guys are just too funny. Love watching you. Thank you for sharing these recipes and their links. Many people don't like beans....not me - I love them!!!! I could eat them daily.... Have a blessed and beautiful day 🥰

[@lisasvendsen1248]

I use Italian dressing with red hot pepper jelly for the dressing in my redneck caviar. Its a delicious dressing with a touch of spice.

[@kathybullard9088]

I had already made the dressing by the recipe but heated up about 1/4 cup jalapeño pepper jelly and added it to the salad. Yum! Thanks for the idea.

[@maurinadittenhaffer6140]

Mandy My cat Boo Boo talks while her dad is praying too. I try to give her food right before we eat so she stays quiet. Great video with bean recipes. Loved it. We ate tomato sandwiches all the time when I was growing up. Delicious.

[@gloriawasion-allen521]

The cowboy caviar dance. Awesome !!

[@ER-cb5du]

Dear Ms Mandy, when cutting your jalapeno, split it down the middle (like you do) and, instead of using a knife to remove the seeds use a teaspoon. Start at the pointed end and draw the spoon down towards the wide end. This will make removing the seeds and veins much easier and cleaner. Love the show!

[@janetdwyer1867]

Gracie Lou is so cute she knows when the cheese is out great recipes ❤

[@Cobaltdragon]

Nice to see Gracie sharing her catio with her humans, such a sweet girl. Your garden is amazing, here in Ontario just starting to plant our vegetables and your tomatoes are almost ripe. Different growing seasons. Always a treat to see the two of you having fun and sharing recipes. Also glad to see Gracie got her cheese.

[@jamiebearden2940]

I absolutely LOVE beans. Thank you for this!

[@mdketzer]

I love cilantro. Basil and cilantro my two favorite herbs. I am not a fan of Pork and Beans so when I make Trish’s recipe I use chili beans instead!❤

[@regenaguinn]

Good idea for variety!

[@Bluefish-LM]

We love tomato sandwichs here in SE Texas, I was raised liking my bread toasted. Also, ya can't have to much cilantro 😊 I do cheat making my rancho beans with the canned pintos 😊 For your rice you can also toast the rice in the pan with a little olive oil. This will cook off the loose starch. It gives it an incredible rich and nutty flavor and less time to cook cause the rice is already hot when you add the water 😊

[@julisplett2748]

Best rice tip right here :)

[@icasscass]

The ziploc baggie holders are everything when you’re trying to stock your freezer. ❤❤❤

[@ronnawatts7779]

I hate cilantro.. lol One of the very few things I will not eat.. it just tastes metallic to me! Love the recipes! 😊

[@allhalewendy]

LOVE you both so much!!!! You always brighten my day and bless me with so much including a good giggle... I sat down with my lunch (baked sweet potato with my chick pea stir fry) and saw this video - how fitting to watch while I eat lunch!!! Have a great week!

[@nakmorris7438]

The best thing for a marriage is laughing together. Love you two!

[@maryallore478]

You are correct....there is no middle ground when it comes to Cilantro! I personally do not care for it. Same goes for blue cheese...you either love it or hate it. I personally LOVE it! I enjoy watching your episodes so much!

[@karalperry2060]

Steven is right about the rice holding up in the fridge. I am thinking orzo would be a great sub out for a cold version.

[@jennidominguez5987]

Another great video, we really enjoy sharing time with your family and all the yummy recipes. Thank you for freezing the extra sauce and not just tossing it I know to many who toss... and Please give Gracie a hug for us she is a gem... Jenni and Vincent Southern CO

[@ginneyskagen8749]

Tomato sandwiches have been a summer ritual forever in my family! Homemade bread, mayo, and the first harvest of tomatoes while they are still warm form the sun, sliced thick, and fresh ground pepper. Best sandwich ever! Thanks for the memory and inciting anticipation of future satisfaction!

[@carlyyoung3481]

I'm in Texas. 80 and sunny. I love Gracie, she's a star. You always make me smile. Thanks

[@GlendaStouffer]

Gotta have big beefsteak tomatoes sliced about 1" for tomatoes sandwiches. I pass on the mayo and just use salt & pepper.

[@leannhall1395]

My 91 year old mom was watching one of your videos with me and saw you using that chopper and said I need one of those. She loves it so much I ordered myself one.

[@kaysuykerbuyk1568]

Steven is really loving his food today 😂😂

[@donnamarieantczak2617]

I absolutely love watching your videos. So down to earth and family oriented. You show everyone so many tips to make life easier on our self such as the way you put leftovers in Ziploc bags or buying rotisserie chicken at a cheap price putting it up and putting it in the freezer when you need it I find it he’ll very entertaining. Thank you so much for all you teach me.

[@mishmoshsoup3461]

I'm Mexican American and a Texas native born and raised so Cilantro is my Jam. Also, we all know that Gracie Lou is really the Star and she is also the Director of the episodes so yeah, she requires all the Cheese or I would be concerned she would sue. 😂🎉love that cat, she is sooooooo cute. And Steven (my hubby is also A Steven and Network engineer) quit shaming her being a free cycle kitty 🐈 shame shame I know your name. Lol j/k

[@virginiaallisonpeck2517]

😂😂😂

[@marilynsheppard2063]

I like getting new dinner ideas from you. But what I love is just how much you and Steve enjoy each other. Watching you two together just makes me happy. 😊🥰 Tomato sandwiches are so yummy. Especially when you can just step out your door and pick them fresh.

[@martitorontomiller]

I am a big fan of cilantro, although I can occasionally taste the soap flavor. I still love it and always add it (when appropriate). And Steven, I grew up eating tomato sandwiches as you described - with tomatoes grown in my granddad’s garden. We also ate a lot of tomato and cucumber salad because he also grew cucumbers. One of my favorite childhood memories was my granddad bringing us a cucumber and the salt shaker while we were swimming in the pool! 🙂

[@kathybullock4834]

I Honestly don't know which one of these recipes I want to try first. They all look Delicious as always. Y'all make me laugh so hard. If I'm having a trying day I just watch you and Steven and I 'm good! Gracie Lou and her cheese is the Best. Thanks for always sharing great food and your awesome fun family. ♥️♥️♥️

[@janmclain6301]

I am 70 and only found y'all about a year ago, but am so enjoying going back to all your earlier videos. Again, your whole family is adorable! I am a mom of 4 and granny of 13, and they are awesome.

[@jennifersmith8640]

I love to toast my bread for tomato sandwiches. Yummy!

[@TheWookieesWife]

TOMATO (Mater) SANDWICHES! I grew up on those, as they were my dads favorite. Toasted and buttered bread, Mayo, thick slices of tomatoes with salt and pepper … mmm mmm MMMM! Best sumner comfort food. Every time I eat one now, I reminisce about the amazing times when I was daddy’s little girl. ❤

[@joannc147]

Gotta love those “food critic approval dance moves”! ❤ Thanks for some great recipe ideas!

[@lemmylousmommy6616]

I absolutely love cilantro! I love the smell of it, like the earth after it rains. I know it's weird, but I wish there was a perfume or body cream that was made from cilantro!

[@sherrieoday6848]

I love cilantro!!! Every time Miss Gracie talks my Toby perks up his ears and paws at me. Lol I also have a Gracie , when she hears you say Gracie, she jumps down and leaves the room. Lol. I just love how you say Boil=bowl.❤️ As a couple, your connection and love for each other comes shining through… Relationship goals❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@taneshahunt1892]

It's 81 here in Indiana. I love bean recipes

[@shirleygardner7456]

I just love watching you and the “ common tater”. I have even tried some of your recipes and they were scrumptious. Will be making the bean salad this weekend. I have two grandkids graduating high school this weekend and that will be the perfect addition to our bar b cue. Will eagerly awaiting your next video. By the way Gracie Lou is adorable!

[@ishkastanley744]

I grew up eating tomato sandwiches! My husband had never heard of anyone eating them before! And since how this video is about beans, I'd like to tell y'all about my mom's favorite bean sandwiches! She would take leftover baked beans, cold, spread them on bread with mayo on the other slice....Mmmmm.... my husband thinks I'm crazy but they are DEEE-licious!!!

[@sandyrekau5779]

My cousin made this recipe for our get together 40 years ago. Old and forgotten recipe. Thanks for reviving it.

[@jeannestephens2616]

One of my favorite spices is tarragon, which goes so well w/chicken.

[@cindygrammer645]

I'm from Columbus, Indiana and I know all about those tomato sandwiches! My great-grandfather raised amazing tomatoes and made me tomato sandwiches often! He put butter on both peices of bread (it kept bread from getting soggy) and some salt, then an inch thick slice of tomato which was bigger in diameter than the bread! He did that with my mom when she was young, but she liked mayo on it better. Thank you both for sharing!! Looking forward to trying these recipes‼🍅🍞

[@cindydorroh9119]

Y'all so funny!! I love that in a couples video. Just like Jessica and Bunky😂

[@dianesellgren6215]

You and Steven are the cutest couple! I just love watching you two almost more then the food

[@dianedeaton1625]

Thank you for making your videos. I love your personality n your husband being involved in the process. Entertaining n makes me smile. Keep them coming n I'll be watching,cooking n enjoying each n every recipe.🎉

[@michelleplatt1695]

Thank you for this beautiful bean footage! 😂 We LOVE beans and one of my hubby’s favorite meals is pinto beans I cook in the crockpot with a ham bone. Served with cornbread…sooo southern and so good!! I don’t mind cilantro. I live in Texas so it’s everywhere. Your garden is quite impressive!! So jealous! My yard is too shady and full of squirrels to grow anything lol. Gonna try these recipes…they all look delicious!! And cheap!!

[@karengavigan5580]

I love Steven's food reactions, enjoy seeing Gracie Lou!

[@cinder8290]

I love Cilantro! We eat a lot of beans, thank you for the recipes. 💖

[@tdoonie8244]

Great way to use up enchilada sauce. Love Gracie Lou!

[@michellethomsen8948]

I was watching one of your videos, you were making something in the instant pot. My husband was really impressed so he went out and bought me one. He said I bet all her recipes are good. So I'm gonna be making a lot of "Mandy's recipes".

[@Bedalouwho]

I just love Gracie Lou. My middle name is Lou also. I have 2 cats, Noel and Joy. They keep me sane. I’m alone now so don’t cook much anymore but I love your channel. Your husband is a hoot. I look forward to seeing your recipes. Keep up the good work. Hugs

[@toastedmarshmallowkitchen7911]

Your garden looks amazing!

[@loriweaver5776]

I had been gone all day running errands and was looking for something easy to make for dinner. I am so glad you posted this video, and I decided I needed to relax and watch it before I looked for something for dinner because I had everything on hand to make the one pot bean fajita. OMG, was it ever delicious!!! Thank you for such a quick and easy recipe. I needed this today.

[@webbsway]

Mandy, honey this grandmaw just loves you two. I am vegetarian and my daughter is vegan due to health concerns so I deeply appreciate these recipes. Thank you so much.

[@lisagrafton2529]

My mom made a dish similar to the baked bean casserole, but towards the end, she put refrigerator biscuits on top, and sprinkled cheddar cheese over them, baking it until biscuits were baked through. It's fabulous!

[@lalousiane7118]

Hey Steven, you will not believe this, but I just bought 2 huge red tomates to make sandwiches this week. Mayo, salt & pepper on bread & dang that's a southern delicacy, at least I love it. Just wish they'd had some green ones to fry, but I'll be dancing in my chair tonight anyway for supper here in southern La. 🤗💜👍⚜

[@aleset1]

Team cilantro! LOVE all your recipes and Stephen's reactions.

[@michellehorning2216]

My husband and I have been experimenting with beans in an effort to cut back on meat which we really love but need to watch our intake, so these recipes are so exactly what we need! Thank you so much, Mandy! We like a touch of cilantro, but not too much. Sadly, we cannot handle spice or heat, so we just leave those kind of ingredients out and they still taste wonderful. Loved the mukbang comments and Steven grooving with the scoops and bean stew. Both these portions of the video had me laughing out loud! And Gracie-Lou, I am so happy you had cheese. Great video once again! Have a great week! 😂😂❤

[@sharongarner3652]

I like cheese and onion sandwiches but just a tomato one sounds good too. My daddy was from the south and he liked cheese and onion sandwiches. He also would put great northern beans on his chocolate cake.

[@sandraspithaler9120]

I like the ideas of Gracie and the cheese 😸❤️ I'll be making all of theses.. Great 👍

[@elektravonbarron7263]

I love me a warm tomato right out of the garden, sliced up on two slices of Wonderbread, mayo, salt, and pepper. My classic Tomato and Mayo sandwich, use to eat them on watch in Panama.

[@charitydavis8936]

I recently got a 4 pack of the contraption that holds bag’s open. Love it, I gave my neighbors/friends the others.

[@savanah1407]

Y’all are so cute together!!! And sweet Gracie!

[@marylynmiller5158]

Love watching you cook and listening to Steven's commentary! Great recipes...love beans!

[@robinsommerhauser-sz1jh]

❤ya'll are so cute. Thanks for the recipes. I need fast easy meals because we work too many hours

[@cindycampbell4994]

Love watching your videos!! Your hubby is so funny! So nice you both are involved. Saving these recipes!! Ty

[@sandybowman7140]

They all look absolutely scrumptious Mandy! Put me down as YUM FOR CELANTRO!

[@ka-barsmom1456]

Omg!!! You two are a hoot!!! LOVE your channel!!! 💪💪🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@denisedieter9004]

I think the addition of joist beef smoked sausage would make the pasta dish more interesting! Thank you very much for sharing.

[@zullo3529]

The tortilla stew and the fajita pasta both look delicious. I could eat those up. Gracie is the sweetest! 🐈 If you cut your peppers from the bottom in the ridges then peel them back off the stem you’ll get the whole pepper off. The stem and seed will be left behind. I hope you find this helpful. Thanks Mandy and Steven 🫘🫘💕

[@NuggetFarm2011]

Great video Mandy! I eat a gluten free plant based diet and these are great, thank you. You and your husband are so funny. I love watching you two.😊 I have a love hate relationship with cilantro. I like it in small amounts, and I grow it as well and harvest the seeds for the next year.

[@2455beth]

Such a good video, all the recipes look delicious of course Steven is hilarious what a cute couple!❤️😋

[@jennyfrblock]

I remember growing up my Granny would use the starch water from the rinsed rice to use on her doilies when she iron them.

[@juno2013]

Team cilantro 🌿 I love these recipes!

[@tammyhoushour8070]

Cilantro 🙌 Herb garden's 🙌❤ thank you Mandy love these recipes

[@lisamiller1804]

Tomato sandwiches are delicious! We used to grow tomatoes when I was a kid growing up in southwestern PA, and my mom made homemade bread. Bread, tomatoes, mayo, a little salt and pepper... absolutely delicious!!

[@joannhutchinson3030]

I'm from the south and I love tomato 🍅 sandwiches. Bread ripe juicy tomatoes mayo s & p. Every once in a blue moon thin sliced Vidalia onion 🧅

[@Starbuck2005]

About the past tip from your viewer about instant mashed potato flakes instead of cornstarch… The other day I wanted a mushroom gravy for my ribeye steak dinner so I tried the instant mashed potato tip instead of a cornstarch slurry and it was perfect! I’ve failed gravy with cornstarch so many times I was about to give up forever! Thanks for sharing!

[@healthhollow7218]

Ohhh I’m getting ready to make bbq baked beans to go with our hotdogs tonight. I may use one of these recipes instead! Thank you Mandy ❤😊

[@sandrabuford5280]

Mandy, I have watched your Channel for a few years now. I enjoy it so much. I am a Great Grandmother and Love to watch, but, sometimes don't always have the energy to comment. But....today I just HAD to; Your CommonTator is sooo cute! You two are the cutest couple!. That Steven has me laughing so hard!!! He is The Comedian Tator😁!!!

[@debbie678]

Thank you for telling the measurements as you go. I pause you to write it all down. ❤. You've got me out of my comfort zone on exact ingredients (peppers, red onions etc. Use what ya got).

[@lb1460]

You're so clever and creative. You keep so many options and variety with a fun, sweet, and faith filled heart (can't forget Sir Common Tater, and beautiful Gracie).😊

[@cynthiabeard1424]

My mother loved tomato sandwiches. Nice memory, so thank you.

[@kimtanner8711]

I agree with Angela !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Love you guys. Blessings !!!

[@CLMcBee]

I love Cilantro. Used it for years and years. Tomanto sandwiches are the bomb. I am a Texan. I watch youtube on my big tv so I hardly comment but I love your recipes.

[@lorettawinsor3976]

Good morning Mandy and Steven my hubby and I love all ur cooking videos. I too love to cook and I’m blessed bcuz my hubby gives most everything I cook a try. And trust me I mix up some pretty weird things And he tells his family that they may not sound or look good but they sure do taste good. Heads up on that best ever Texas caviar the longer it sits the better it tastes. And it tastes delish even when u eat it just by itself as a side dish. Have a blessed day love Loretta and jim winsor

[@dawnsharp7340]

Mandy, I really enjoy you and Steven, I really liked your video on using beans, one of yours reminds me of three bean salad, my recipe for my bean salad: Small can of cut green beans drained Kidney beans drained Can of drained corn Garbanzo beans or (chick peas) drained Small chopped onion, small bell pepper ( your choice of color) Small jalapeno pepper chopped (optional) Salt and pepper to taste Fresh cilantro about a tablespoon or your choice on how much Then pour Italian dressing over mix well or You can make your favorite homemade vinaigrette Mix well and enjoy by by by
