Dark Days Challenge Week #3

When we were in Washington in October I picked up some red beans from one of Laura’s favorite farms. I’m not necessarily good at doing beans from scratch but am eager to get more experience. I used a Manana Bean recipe out of the Santa Fe cookbook Laura gave me a couple of years ago using the beans, local onions and hot peppers from the garden. Dan grilled wild rice sausages from the pig we got last year and we sliced Honey Crisp apples to go along with it. Just the right amount of spice and sweet to satisfy our pallets this evening.
