Ingredients (use vegan versions):
- cooked beans, about six cups
- corn chips, one bag
- brown rice, (optional) about four cups
- veggie options: corn, romaine lettuce, spinach, tomatoes, onions, olives, cucumbers, avocado, if you're daring- pineapple and pickles
- other optional toppings that are tasty: Veganaise, vegan sour cream, salsa, ketchup (all good)
Directions:
Think of this somewhat like a taco
salad, but everyone makes their own.
Starting with the beans, I like to use
a combo of pinto and black, one can of
stewed tomatoes finely chopped, and a
can of sweet corn. This adds good
flavor and interest. Chips are
anything corn-friendly, people love
using Fritos - but for the more health-
conscious, a bag of organic yellows or
blues is yum. This is what happens,
warm up the beans till hot,while this
is happening dice all veggies and put
them in separate bowls (like you are
serving tacos). All you do is get your
plate and grab two or three handfuls of
chips and crunch them into little
pieces with your hand. Next, ladle a
couple of scoops of beans on top, rice
as well if on hand. Then add all or
some of the veggies, depending on what
you like. Then for added goodness you
can put a small spoonful of Veganaise
to make it somewhat creamy, ketchup and
salsa are also very good in the mix.
Then just go sit down and relax and
start eating. Good also if you mix it
up a little with your fork. You will
be amazed at how fast this haystack
will grow on your plate as you are
making it, this is normal. But you
will be even more amazed at how much
people love them. Haystacks are
awesome when it comes to serving lots
of people.
