Recipe Notes
* I used a mix of pinto and white beans in this recipe, however I often use only one type of bean for ease of preparation. Cannellini beans are my favourite, but any will work including chickpeas. 1 cups equals about 1 x 15 oz can of beans.
** My favourite combo of herbs is chives, dill, and cilantro. Other combinations include dill, mint, and parsley, or parsley, cilantro and dill, or basil and parsley. If you only have two complementing herbs go with them - they'll be great!
