"This is a recipes I've had for years but never made until a few months ago. DH really liked this dish with breaded pork chops and gravy. The texture resembles soft mashed potatoes. Cook time assumes canned beans."

It was too hot to boil potatoes and I always have canned beans on hand. These have great flavor and are easy to make. I used 1 Tbsp. of olive oil instead of the butter and I left out the onions of course. I wanted them to have some texture, so I just mashed them instead of whipping them, leaving some beans whole. Thanks for the recipe.

Yummy. I found it definitely needed the salt and pepper. I also found that I could not quite get the consistency of mashed potatoes. But I used cannelini beans and there were a lot of empty "shells" in the can. I also used only 1 tbsp. of butter and I thought it was plenty. Served this with baked fish, sparkling carrots (#103134) amd Cinnamon Oranges (#50124). Yummy dinner. Thanks!

This year I'm experimenting with large desert style cold frames so I can grow winter vegetables September through February. I'm keeping my fingers crossed
