Short and sweet today! Grumpy wasn't too happy with the peppers in the recipe - he's not a big fan of them. However, this to me was yummy! I love peppers! He said if I had left the peppers out it would have been better to him and I guess I was heavier on the Black Bean with Garlic Chili sauce than normal as he told me it was spicy. I thought it was perfect. This was my take on beef and cabbage for St. Patrick's Day. I guess next year I will go traditional for Grumpy!

2 tablespoons Maggi sauce (or soy)

I've never seen black bean chili garlic sauce. Is it with the oriental foods in the grocery? Is there a particular brand you use? Thanks!

Sounds slurpingly delicious to me. Thanks for sharing with Presto Pasta Nights.

What a great combination of flavors, Shelby! Now, I've never tried the black bean chili garlic sauce, but I'm sure it's delicious too. Could you send over a bowl of this for lunch?

I've never cooked with cabbage...it looks like I'm totally missing out! I love spicy but I've never tried Black Bean Chili Garlic Sauce. I will have to give this recipe a try, thanks!
Shelby
Thanks Mandy - I really love the black bean chili garlic sauce, it is so good! It is salty with heat and chunks of black bean in it. I love it best when I add some brown sugar to the sauce mixture! Love that sweet heat!
