Pro Chef Turns Canned Black Beans Into 3 Meals For Under $9 | The Smart Cook | Epicurious

Chef Dan Giusti is back with another edition of The Smart Cook, this time demonstrating the potential waiting within your average can of black beans. Watch as Dan prepares a day's worth of meals, each elevating canned black beans from the mundane to something nutritious and surprisingly delicious. The best part? All 3 dishes come in for under $3 a serving.

Dan Giusti, formerly the head chef of Noma, is the founder of Brigaid, a company that places professional chefs into institutional food spaces like public schools. Brigaid chefs bring their experience, knowledge and technique to institutional kitchens to improve food quality. Similar to how Brigaid works--by bringing professional chefs into institutional spaces to apply their knowledge to new environments-- The Smart Cook intends to do the same by bringing Chef Dan's experience and knowhow into your home with delicious recipes prepared on a budget.
