About the recipe:
Stewed red beans (also white and black beans) are a hallmark of Dominican nutrition, most Dominicans eat them almost every day, and I have hated them with a passion since I was a little girl (my mom forced me to eat them because they're rich on Iron), beans have always been my least favourite food. A couple of years ago my sister was having some friends over and she prepared this Beans Salad recipe, which I almost refused to taste (on account that I hate beans), but when I finally gave in and tasted it, I loved it, I was like, If there is a good-tasting way of preparing beans why do they make that horrible stewed beans, and why was I forced to eat them when I was a kid? My mom could have given me this salad and I would have loved to eat beans. The point of this story is to say that this recipe is really tasty and I love it, even though I hate beans.

Esta receta ilustrada fue mi participación en el concurso de ilustración "Frijoles en todo el mundo" de They Draw & Travel + US Dry Beans Council. Lamentablemente, tampoco gané este concurso, pero disfruté mucho dibujando esta receta.
Sobre la receta:
Las habichuelas rojas guisadas (también habichuelas blancas y negras) son un sello distintivo de la nutrición dominicana, la mayoría de los dominicanos las comen casi todos los días, y yo las he odiado con pasión desde que era niña (mi mamá me obligaba a comerlas porque son ricas en hierro), las habichelas siempre han sido mi comida menos favorita. Hace un par de años mi hermana invitó a unos amigos a cenar a la casa y preparó esta receta de Ensalada de Habichuelas, que casi me negué a probar (por que odio las habichuelas), pero cuando finalmente cedí y la probé, me encantó, dije, si hay una manera de preparar habichuelas con buen sabor, ¿por qué hacen esas habichuelas guisadas horribles y por qué me vi obligada a comerlas cuando era una niña? Mi mamá podría haberme dado esta ensalada y me hubiera encantado comer habichuelas. El punto de esta historia es decir que esta receta es muy sabrosa y me encanta, aunque detesto las habichuelas.
