Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

    p. 123 These beans were just ok for us. They were very hot and I only used 1 chipotle in adobo vs the 2 LF calls for. They also seemed to lack something in terms of flavour and tasted a bit flat. LF suggests you puree the tomato-bacon mixture for this dish but notes that if you prefer a chunkier texture, you can skip that step. Somehow I couldn’t wrap my mind around pureed bacon. I skipped that step! If someone else makes these, I’d be interested to hear if the flavours are authentic. This was a miss for us.
