I make beans all the time (from dry beans). Usually pinto but sometimes lentils. I will add a can of diced tomatoes, onion and sometimes celery. Turns out great to me. I don't add any meat.
I also make taco soup but will use the meat substitute grillers (Morningstar). I love it.
I love vegetables in general and take a daily vitamin (which according to the back includes the B12 vitamin).
Beans are so kind to the budget too and filling.
