Cooking Tip from La Cocina GOYA

Freeze beans for better leftovers: Leftovers? No problem! Cooked bean dishes, like this one, are great candidates for freezing. The hearty legumes tend to retain their taste, texture and color for up to 3 months in the freezer. Just place the cooled beans in an air-tight container, freeze, and you'll have a delicious homemade side on call!
