Follow the directions on the brownie box for pre-heating the oven, usually 350 degrees. 1. Open the can of black beans and
pour them into a colander - but keep the can! Rinse the beans well, then put them back in the can. Add water just to the top of the beans. 2. Put the beans/water in a blender with the zucchini or squash or carrots. Puree until smooth. 3. Pour the brownie mix in a large bowl. Pour the black bean mix in the bowl. Stir about 50 times.

Pour batter into a 13x9" pan, following directions on the brownie mix box. Or use mini-cupcake pans (enough for 3-4 dozen). Spray with a non-stick baking spray and spoon batter into cupcake wells, filling them about 2/3 to 3/4 full. 5. If you used mini-cupcake pans, you can push a fresh blueberry into the middle of each brownie or drop 1/4 tsp. of preserves or jelly on top of each brownie. 6. Bake according to brownie package, usually 25-30 minutes until done. 7. Cool them and enjoy.

Ingredients: 5 cans of kidney beans, light or dark, strained 1 can of chili beans 1 small can of chopped tomatoes and green chili peppers 1 large can tomato juice 1 pound ground sirloin 1 large onion 1 large green pepper 1 pkg. of dry chili seasoning mix In a large skillet brown sirloin with the peppers and onions that you have cut into chunks. When done use slotted spoon and put it into your crock pot. Add the beans, chili's and tomato juice. Put in seasoning mix and stir. Put your lid on and cook for 4-5 hours on high or 6-7 hours on low, depending on your crock pot. Stir every so often.
