Beans are a real go-to for me.

The combination of lentils with rice or bulgur is the absolute height of Levantine comfort food. I could eat it every day.

Beans are such a nice, neutral canvas, you can make a big, basic pot of them and then play around with them differently every day.

My favorite dish is brown rice with lentils, roasted red and yellow peppers, and fennel, with a sweet potato and a salad on the side.

I like refried beans. That's why I wanna try fried beans, because maybe they're just as good and we're just wasting time. You don't have to fry them again after all.

I love chicken and anything to do with chicken. I love anything that's homemade. Oh, and BBQ. And I love green beans. There is so much good food. I can go on and on and on.

Beans have a soul.

Dinner is often a stew of beans or legumes, which are awesome for dieting; they give you that meaty satisfaction and both are excellent with whole grain rice or bread.

I come from a food family, so you would think that I would be great at making baked beans or something, but I'm not.

Me, sexy? I'm just plain ol' beans and rice.
