Canned beans: Your secret weapon for quick, budgetfriendly and nutritious meals

In the fast-paced whirlwind of life, a can of beans might not seem like a hero ingredient, but trust me, it can be! Canned beans are the unsung champions of your pantry, ready to swoop in and save the day when you’re craving a delicious, wallet-friendly and healthy meal in no time.

Canned beans offer a trifecta of benefits. First, they’re incredibly costeffective, making dining well on a budget a reality.

Second, their convenience is unrivaled -- no soaking, no boiling, just pop the can open and let the culinary creativity flow. Third, they’re a nutritional powerhouse, packed with fiber, protein and essential vitamins, nutrients and minerals, making them an ideal addition to your diet.

While homemade beans certainly have their virtues, the convenience of canned beans is hard to beat. When time is of the essence, canned beans offer a shortcut without sacrificing quality.

The culinary possibilities with canned beans are endless. Create salads, burritos, casseroles, dips and more with the modest canned bean at the core.

Today we’re going to whip up a hearty White Bean Soup in a flash then elevate the humble dish with the vibrant flavors of this Provencal herb sauce. This makes a lovely lunch or light supper served with crusty bread and a green salad.

Provencal herb sauce is

a vibrant and flavorful condiment with similarities to Italian pesto. It’s a fragrant blend of fresh basil, garlic, tomato, red wine vinegar and olive oil, bursting with flavor and flair. This sauce brings a unique twist to this soup, adding a touch of Provencal charm to your culinary adventure.

The end of summer brings an abundance of herbs to our gardens that need to be used quickly. One easy way to preserve them is to make herb sauces like chimichurri, pesto or this Provencal herb sauce. They freeze beautifully, and they’re nutrition-packed condiments. Herb sauces are rich in flavonoids with antioxidant properties and vitamin K.

Simple white bean soup

Yield: 4 (1 1/2 cup)

servings

Total Time: 20 minutes

1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil

2 teaspoons garlic, chopped

3 (14.5-ounce) cans

Great Northern or other white bean (5 cups)

1 (14.5-ounce) can vegetable or chicken broth (1 1/2 cups)

Kosher salt & fresh ground pepper to taste

4 thick slices of crusty bread, grilled or toasted Provencal herb sauce (recipe follows)

In a saucepan on medium heat, warm the olive oil. Add garlic and stir until fragrant. Add beans and broth. Bring to a boil then simmer for 5 minutes. Now, you want to puree some of the beans to add creaminess to the soup. Puree about half of

the beans with a food processor, blender or immersion blender, or smoosh beans on the side of the pot with a fork. It all works! Return the puree to the soup and stir to combine.

Serve the soup topped with lots of pepper, a drizzle of sauce and a big chunk of toasted bread.

Provencal herb sauce

Yield: 3/4 cup

Total Time: 10 minutes

1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil

1 tablespoon garlic, crushed

1 teaspoon red wine

vinegar

2 cups basil leaves, torn into pieces

1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper

1/4 cup tomato, diced

Pulse oil, garlic, vinegar and basil in a small food processor to a loose paste. Add salt and pepper. Stir in the tomatoes and refrigerate until ready to serve.

Canned beans are a frugal foodie’s best friend, so stock your pantry with these versatile legumes and embark on a culinary adventure that’s as delicious as it is cost-effective.

towards you. Step away from the pot while the popcorn is popping.

When the popping slows enough that you can hear individual kernels popping, remove the pot from the heat and let it finish popping off the heat, about 30 seconds longer.

Discard any kernels:

Slowly pour the popcorn onto the baking sheet, keeping unpopped kernels in the pot. Look through the popped popcorn and remove any additional unpopped kernels.

TAQUITOS DE POLLO

For the taquitos

24 corn tortillas

1 1/4 pounds cooked, shredded chicken breast (about 3 packed cups)

1 quart canola or vegetable oil, as needed for frying

Optional toppings

1 medium white onion, chopped

1 bunch fresh cilantro, chopped

1 head iceberg lettuce, shredded

1 1/2 cups crema Mexicana or sour cream

1 (10-ounce) package queso fresco, crumbled

1 1/2 cups store-bought or homemade salsa or hot sauce

Heat the tortillas:

Wrap the tortillas in a clean dish towel and place them in the microwave to steam, making them pliable. Use medium to high heat for increments of 30 seconds until they are just warmed through. Do not overheat, or they will be too fragile to use.

Fill the tortillas:

Place 2 dinner plates on the counter. One is a work surface, and the other is for the rolled taquitos.

Using a dinner plate as a work surface, place a warmed tortilla in the center and add about 2 tablespoons of shredded chicken towards the

CORN DOG MUFFINS

1/2 cup finely ground yellow cornmeal

1/2 cup all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/4 teaspoon baking soda

1/8 teaspoon salt

2 tablespoons granulated sugar

1/4 cup butter, melted (for more flavor, brown the butter)

1 egg

1/2 cup buttermilk

5 to 6 hot dogs

For serving: Mustard Ketchup

Make the honey coating: Wipe out the pot and set it back on the stove. Add the honey and butter to the pot and heat on low. Stir with a flexible spatula and simmer for 1 minute.

Coat the popcorn: Use the parchment as a sling to pour the popcorn into the pot. Return the parchment paper to the baking sheet. Using a flexible spatula, start at the bottom of the pot and scoop up use a folding motion to coat the popcorn with the honey mixture. Scrape the sides and continue stirring from the bottom to the top until the popcorn is evenly coated and no liquid is pooled at the bottom. The popcorn will be a glossy golden-yellow color. Dump the coated popcorn back onto the parchment-lined baking sheet and spread it out evenly with a flexible spatula. Sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon of kosher salt, if using.

Bake:

Bake until the popcorn has deepened to a caramel color and it feels dry and firm, about 45 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes. The popcorn will end up chewy and soft if not baked long enough. You can tell the popcorn is done when you can smell the honey, the popcorn has darkened slightly, and it feels dry and firm to the touch. It becomes even crispier as it cools. Let the popcorn cool for 15 minutes, then break the popcorn into bite-sized chunks or individual kernels. Once completely cool, about 30 minutes, serve or store at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 5 days.

right of the center in an even line. Do not overfill. Roll up tightly without splitting the tortilla. Either place the taquito seam-side down on the plate or secure the tortilla by threading a toothpick through the seam of the taquito like pinning a diaper.

Repeat with the remaining tortillas and chicken.

Fry the taquitos:

Add 1/2 inch of canola oil to a 12-inch cast iron frying pan over medium heat. Use an instant-read thermometer to check the temperature—it should be 350°F. Line a baking sheet or platter with paper towels.

Once the oil is hot, place 5 to 6 taquitos seam-side down in the frying pan with tongs so you don’t burn your fingers. Make sure not to crowd the pan or the taquitos will not get golden brown.

Once you see the edges turning golden, about 3 to 4 minutes per side, turn over with tongs and fry until the other side is cooked to the same color. Remove from the pan with tongs and place on the baking sheet or platter to drain. Add more oil to bring it back up to 1/2 inch up the pan and let the oil come to temperature in between batches, if needed. Repeat with the remaining taquitos.

Serve with toppings: Remove the toothpicks. Add toppings like chopped onion, cilantro, lettuce, crema, crumbled queso fresco, and salsa. Serve hot.

Extra taquitos (without toppings) can be stored in a zip-top freezer bag in the freezer for up to 4 months or in an airtight container in the fridge for 2 days.

While you can eat them cold out of the fridge—and I have—they reheat nicely on a cookie sheet in the oven at 400°F for about 5 minutes or until you can see the surface sizzle. If pulling them from the freezer, reduce the temperature to 350°F and increase the time to 10 to 15 minutes.

Mix the wet ingredients: In another bowl add the melted butter, eggs, and buttermilk and whisk until smooth.

the wet and dry ingredients: Pour the buttermilk mixture into the dry ingredients and stir well, making sure there are no lumps or dry pockets of flour. Cut the hot dogs: Cut each hot dog into 1-inch pieces. You’ll want 20 pieces total. Fill the muffin tray and add the hot dogs:

a tablespoon measure, distribute the cornbread batter into the greased muffin tray.

Bake: Bake for 8-10 minutes until the muffins have risen, become a golden color, and a toothpick inserted into the cornbread portion of the muffin comes out clean.

Serve: Remove the muffins from the pan with the help of a small offset spatula.

Difficulty: ★★★★★ 10/1

Q: Is “Dancing with the Stars” coming back to ABC, or will it just be on Disney+? When will they announce the new cast?

I’m eager for the season to start. -- P.L.

A: After one season of exclusively airing on Disney+, “Dancing with the Stars” is returning home to ABC. This is likely in part due to new episodes of scripted shows being postponed until 2024 due to the writers’ and actors’ strikes. It will still be available to stream on Disney+ and Hulu, but a return to network television is a welcome one.

Julianne Hough, a former pro dancer on the show, is also returning, but in the form of cohost, alongside former “DWTS” champion Alfonso Ribeiro. She replaces Tyra Banks, who has left the show after three years. Sadly, longtime judge Len Goodman passed away earlier this year after battling cancer. This year’s judging panel consists of familiar faces: Derek Hough, Carrie Ann Inaba and Bruno Tonioli.

This fall’s contestants feature some big names from reality TV -- Charity Lawson of “The Bachelorette,” Ariana Madix of “Vanderpump Rules,”

Mauricio Umansky of “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills,” Harry Jowsey of “Too Hot to Handle”-- as well as singers Jason Mraz and Lele Pons. A wide range of thespians make up the rest of the roster: Matt Walsh (“Veep”); Mira Sorvino (“Sound of Freedom”); Barry Williams (“The Brady Bunch”); Tyson Beckford (“Zoolander”); Xochtil Gomez (“The Baby-Sitters Club”); Jamie Lynn Spears (“Zoey 102”); and Alyson Hannigan (“How I Met Your Mother”). This season’s professional athlete is NFL running back Adrian Peterson. Season 32 of “DWTS” premieres on Tuesday, Sept. 26, on ABC.

Q: I’m confused. Is Drew Barrymore’s talk show coming back or not? What about Kelly Clarkson’s talk show? -- N.C.

A: Both of these beloved talk show hosts and their popular syndicated daytime shows are on hiatus until the writers’ strike ends. Initially, “The Drew Barrymore Show” was slated to return this fall despite the strike, with Barrymore noting that her unemployed crew needed to get back to work. But after protests from

picketers and the negative stories that ran in the press, Barrymore recently had a change of heart and agreed to wait until the strike is resolved.

“The Kelly Clarkson Show” hasn’t resumed filming in front of a live audience either. But when it does, it’ll be relocating from Los Angeles to New York -- once the strike ends.

Q: Whatever happened to actress Meg Tilly? I remember seeing her in the film “Agnes of God” years ago, but I don’t recall anything recent. -- L.L.

A: Meg Tilly is probably best known for her

SALOME’S STARS

“Priscilla’s revenge” is the new nickname for Sofia Coppola’s biopic of Priscilla Presley, as it is somewhat of a rebuttal to Baz Lurhmann’s “Elvis” ($288.7 million gross and eight Oscar nominations, including one for its Elvis, Austin Butler). The Venice Film Festival audience afforded a tremendous ovation for “Priscilla.” In a Venice news conference, Priscilla even took the mic to say, “It’s very difficult to sit and watch a film about you and about your life and about your love. I think Sofia did an amazing job.”

She also expanded on how “Priscilla” tells her side of the story. “It was very difficult for my parents to understand that Elvis would be so interested in me and why. And I really do think [it was] because I was more of a listener,” she explained.

“Elvis would pour his heart out to me in every way in Germany: his fears, his hopes, the loss of his mother, which he never got over. That was really our connection.

People think, ‘Oh, it was sex.’ Not at all. I never had sex with him [then]. He was very kind, very soft, very loving, but he also respected the fact I was only 14 years old. We were more in mind, in thought, and that was our relationship.”

In addition, the Venice Film Festival gave rave reviews to Cailee Spaeny as Priscilla and “Euphoria” star Jacob Elordi as Elvis. This has elevated Elordi to the status of a sex symbol, as mobs of girls went wild outside the festival screaming “Jacob, Jacob, Jacob”

desperately. Judge “Priscilla” for yourself when it opens in theaters on Nov. 3. Woody Allen’s newest and, perhaps, last film, “Coup de Chance,” received a 5-minute ovation at the Venice Film Festival. Filmed in the French language, and also in France, it opens there on Sept. 27, but they haven’t yet set a date in the United States. Protesters stood outside shouting “no rape culture,” and “A rapist is not a sick man; he is the healthy son of patriarchy.” The day before, banners read “Island of rapists” and “No Golden Lion for predators,” referring to Allen and Roman Polanski, whose movie “The Palace” was up for a top prize. Sad that such giant creative talents have been marred by controversy.

Taylor Swift keeps breaking records. Not only has she become the first performer to gross more than $1 billion in ticket sales in her recent tour, her movie “Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour” opens in theaters on Oct. 13. Tickets are priced at $19.89 for adults and $13.13 for children. The previous first-day record holder for ticket sales was $16.9 million, and with AMC’s highly aggressive measures, her film will no doubt break records even before it hits theaters. After earning $92 million in 2022, a fraction of what Swift will make for 2023, it’ll push her $740 million net worth over the top. No doubt she’s a “Taylor made” billionaire! ©2023 King Features Synd., Inc.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19)

Although practical situations continue to dominate this week, there’s time for the Lamb to indulge in the fun things in life, like maybe taking a special someone out for a great evening.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20)

This week favors relationships.

Take time to renew old ones and make time to go where new friends can be found. On a more practical note, expect news about a business deal.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20)

You should be seeing some

progress on that new workplace situation. Meanwhile, family matters might demand more attention, and you’ll want to set aside time to deal with them.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22)

A relationship might suddenly present some challenges you never expected. After talking things out, you might want to consider taking some time to assess what you’ve learned.

LEO (July 23 to August 22)

A disappointing response to a request might dampen the Lion’s spirits, but you might want to ask the reasons behind

it. What you learn can be of great importance in a future undertaking.

VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) A once-volatile situation should be settled by now, giving you a chance to refocus on a project you’ve been planning for. Look for an interested party to rally for support.

LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) A business matter that unexpectedly turns into a personal situation could create complications. Best to resolve

the matter now before too much harm can be done.

SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) Emotions can run high when they involve personal matters no one really wants to talk about. But this could be a good time to create the means to a workable outcome.

SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) A positive response to a workplace request could lead the way to other long-sought changes. Congratulations. A personal situation also takes a welcome turn.

CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) Patience pays off, as that once-overwhelming work situation continues to become easier to handle on a one-by-one basis. Look for positive news from a colleague.

AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) It might be a good idea to take more time and reassess your next move in working out a complex situation. You could benefit from a new perspective on the matter.

PISCES (February 19 to March 20) You might want to consider making time to discuss

a change of plans with everyone concerned. Be prepared to explain your actions. Also be prepared to listen to alternatives.

BORN THIS WEEK: You have a strong sense of what is right, and you try to work from that foundation. Friends see you as reliable.
