Beans are one my favorite things to eat at home, I grew up eating them all the time. Today am sharing this 3 beans stew recipe using pinto, kidney and cannellini beans. Using canned beans in this recipe quickens the process and you still up with a comforting and delicious dish that you and your family will enjoy. You can still opt to cook the beans from dry if you prefer this method.
