Pink North sounds like Santa’s workshop made out of cotton candy. Actually, it’s a Hoppin’ John variation made with pink beans and Great Northern beans.

1-1/4 cups raw long-grain brown rice

15.5 oz can pink beans, drained and rinsed

15 oz can Great Northern beans, drained and rinsed

1 cup coarsely chopped celery

2 cups water

2 oz grated mozzarella cheese

1/4 cup plain, low fat yogurt

1/2 tsp ground cumin

salt and freshly-ground white pepper to taste

14.5 oz can diced tomatoes, well drained

1 cup coarsely chopped red onion

1/2 cup coarsely chopped red bell pepper 

Cook the rice; set aside.

Put the beans and celery into a pot, water just to cover. Bring just to boiling; lower heat to a simmer; and cook until celery is firm-tender, about 10 minutes. Drain.

Stir in cheese; yogurt; and seasonings. Mix well. Add the diced tomatoes; onion; and bell pepper. Fold in the rice.

Makes about 11 cups.
