Instant Pot Chili Beans, Tempeh and Greens Burrito Bowl

I love Rick Bayless and the interesting Mexican dishes he recreates.  Every time I connect in Chicago, I eat at Fonterra Grill.  I am still trying to get my hands on huitlacoche (a fungus that infects corn).  His restaurants serve it.  I sounds like something you would want to avoid, it infects corn after all.  However, if you like mushrooms as I do, it is another type that I haven’t tried.  If I ever get to try it, I’ll report back.  The recipe for this week is from, of course, Rick Bayless.  This one is relatively simple.  Just beans and greens made into a taco filling.  I am starting off with his recipe for Red Chili Beans and Greens.  It’s...

‘Great Discoveries in Medicine’ shows how modern advances are rooted in ancient methods

By Jacqueline Cutler, New York Daily News Medicine isn’t magic. It used to be thought of that way. Even today, it’s still often wrapped in mystery. But its pragmatic practitioners aren’t very different from mechanics, and their jobs are pretty much the same. First, figure out what’s wrong. Then, find what you need to fix it.
