How much did the bean flavor come through? I wonder how this would go with gravy... ?? Sopor, What a great experiment! How much did the bean flavor come through?

Mashed beans & potatoes! The idea had been floating around in the back of my mind for a while, but some of your posts about beans finally convinced me I should try it. I'm also not huge on this "low-carb" thing... but it seems to me that mashed potatoes are about the most nutritionally flat dishes out there... loads of starch and a little fat. So I thought some beans would add some great nutrition without screwing up the texture too much. I started with some frozen beans*, cooked them for about 2/3 of their normal time, then added the potatoes. I also added a can of garbanzo beans right at the end. Then I mashed it all up in my food processor (to help break down the beans shells) and added milk and butter as usual. It turned out great! Assuming you like the flavor of beans =) *I used chick peas and lima beans because that's what I had. Next time I'm going to use dry Great Northern or Navy beans, along with Garbanzo beans. I think the flavor and color of the Great Northern or Navy will work better. I tried an interesting alternative to normal mashed potatoes a week or so ago… Mashed beans & potatoes!
