I cherished each the beans and the sauce – it was like cream of bean soup.
I don’t make inexperienced beans like that – for lots of causes, not the least of which is the Velveeta. It’s been a few a long time since I’ve had Velveeta. I do not know if I would love the style.

And I dwell in France. France has moderately quite a lot of totally different cheeses. I’m engaged on attempting all of them….
Within the meantime, that is my absolute favourite approach of cooking beans now – inexperienced, purple, or yellow.
