1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger

1 teaspoon dried onion flakes
1/2 teaspoon prepared brown mustard
1 tablespoon hot pepper sauce, or to taste

"This is a really good side dish with lots of flavor. You really do need to let it cook for the recommended 20 minutes to thicken and give the flavors a chance to meld. I used black beans and pintos ..." See moreinstead of black-eyed peas, added only 1 tsp of Tabasco and then put the bottle at the table for additional spiciness. As I always do with bean dishes like this, I added just a splash of olive oil and vinegar right before serving. It's really low in calories and fat, has good fiber, not too high in carbs, so you can enjoy this with a clear conscience. Served with sliced red jalapeno peppers, chopped green onions, and a dollop of sour cream."

"I had to cut this recipe in half to serve just my husband and I for dinner. Also, I used ranch-style beans with jalapeno instead of the black beans and black-eyed peas because that's all I had. We e..." See morenjoyed these very much, they were well flavored and spicy, just the way we like our beans.
