Recently kidney beans have become one of my favourite beans. And before coming to America I didn't know there were a million colors in beans. Mexicans eat as many beans as Indians eat Lentils. And I think they both have virtually the same nutritional value.
Anyway, I was searching for a recipe to use both the kidney beans as well as mushrooms and I found this vegan recipe and I modified it to my taste...you see I am not a vegan
