These beans were a lifesaver! I was short on time and needed a quick and easy meal. I threw these ingredients in the slow cooker and forgot about them. When I came back, dinner was ready and my family loved it.

These beans were a little bland for my taste. I had to add some extra spices and salt to make them more flavorful.
