Hot take: that $5 bag of dried beans lasts me 8 meals if I actually plan ahead

Last Tuesday I soaked a whole pound of pinto beans overnight and turned them into burritos, soup, and refried beans for the week, but I still ended up ordering pizza Friday because I forgot to thaw any... has anyone else found a cheap bean recipe that actually keeps you full past dinner?

Toss a ham hock or bacon grease in with those beans and they'll stick with you way longer.

Yeah cause nothing says "light lunch" like a grease bomb that sits in your gut till next Tuesday.
