How to Cook Beans On The Stove

Here is a great tutorial on cooking beans. They can take some time but really are quite easy to make. We grew up cooking our own beans. If you plan ahead, it is a  simple process. Make up a big pot of them, freeze what you don't need right now, and you have them ready for your next meal.
