Logan's Beans

I set out to create a high protein, high fiber, and nutrient dense dish that I could cook in bulk to meal prep for the work week. This recipe has been tweaked repeatedly and I'm proud of the final product. You can customize your spice level by putting less jalapeños or turn it up with added habaneros or red pepper flakes. You will need a large crockpot for this recipe. Otherwise just scale the recipe down to fit your needs.

Step 1

Sort through your beans, make sure to remove and undesirable looking beans or stones that are common in the bag.

Step 2

Give all your beans and veggies a quick rinse to remove dirt and pesticides. (I like to use a salad spinner with tap water and a splash of vinegar to wash my produce.)

Step 3

Finely chop all your veggies and bacon.

Step 4

Combine and mix all your ingredients into your crockpot.

Step 5

Top your crockpot with water until the water line is roughly .25-.5 inches over your ingredients.

Step 6

Cook on low for 8 hours or until beans are tender and bacon is cooked through. (I like to stir every 2 hours or so but it isn't necessary. You could leave these on while you're at work or overnight.)

Step 7

Enjoy your finished product! I like to fill multiple 2 cup containers to set me up several meals throughout the week. 2 minutes in the microwave and they're as good as fresh!
