Summary: If it’s cold or rainy, when I think dinner, I want something hearty and filling and simple. This is all of those things plus it’s delish and beautifully simple. I’m pretty happy to eat a bowl if this by itself but it would be fab on a bed of mashed potatoes with a fried egg on top or with rice or on toast. I used two tins of kidney beans and a can of black beans but use whatever you have. I also had a can of green chillies I picked up somewhere but you could use roast capsicum and perhaps some chopped, pickled jalapenos. I have kept this vego but you could add chorizo with the onions.
