Elizabeth on 2022-04-22 (5 stars): I love this recipe. So simple, just throw it all in and walk away. Also very serious about the it’s actually a filling vegetarian meal! I make this all the time! Panty ingredients makes it so easy. Sometimes I mix up the beans just bc I love all the beans and use what I have on hand. Also so good for meal prep!
Natasha on 2021-05-09 (5 stars): I was on the search for some new recipes for my family's rotation and happened to stumble upon this one. My husband and I started a vegetarian lifestyle almost 2 years ago and we like to find recipes that are flavorful and will appeal to our 2 children (ages 4 & 7). This recipe was a HIT with everyone--even my older daughter, who does not like condiments at all, was asking for more of this barbecue! We subbed 2 Tbsp of honey for the molasses as we are not fans of that flavor and it was delicious. Thank you for a wonderful new recipe in our monthly rotation!!
