At Christmas, I thought of the idea of trying to make a red, white and green dish by mixing together small red beans and small white beans, and seasoning them with fresh tarragon.
The beans didn’t turn out as red as I was imagining, they are more of a brown color, Maybe I will do this in the future but with some red and green bell peppers added jn to really bring out the red, white and green festive Christmas theme? I followed the recipe here,
The recipe says the Seasonings (Onion powder, garlic powder, dried tarragon, butter —I did use vegan butter) would make it super tasty. I don’t know, maybe it would be better with dried tarragon the way they recommended (I used fresh), but for me, when I made it per the recipe, it wasn’t tasty enough. I added some Herdez hatch green chiles from a can (hot, not mild) and some black pepper. That helped a lot.
I think I might this make this a tradition for future Christmas celebrations. But I really do want to try it with the sautéed red and green bell peppers added, to see if that makes it look more festive and Christmassy,
