1. Is that made with Goya beans?

4. Lol! Nope! Dollar General store brand beans. The finest and cheapest!

6. I mistakenly bought some Goya tomato paste when I spotted tomato paste in the

half off bin at the grocery store. I think I got about 10 cans of it for about 35 cents a can. Much to my dismay it actually tastes pretty good. Damn Trumphumpers giving everything a bad name.

It sounds easy enough to make, tasty and inexpensive.

3. While my wife is in the hospital, I'm trying out recipes that are easy to make

and that the recipes use ingredients that don't require refrigeration and I can cook the meal using the stovetop burners on my LP gas oven.

In case of emergency like power going out for an extend time, I can still cook a variety of tasty and nutritious meals.

5. My Cuban friends add a tsp or two of ground cumin seed and olives..

A fatback or slab bacon for the mouth feel and taste. I try to not eat meat so I just amp up the flavor with a good olive oil
