Dear Jim,

I noted several recipes already sent for feijoada, the national dish of
Brazil.

I'd recommend an easy "beans and meat" feijoada, sent to school in a
crockpot. Set on low....it'll keep all day.

Here's a very easy one from Southernfoods.about.com

Feijoada 

1 lb Dried black beans 
1 lb Beef stew meat, cubed 
3/4 lb Link sausage, 3/4-1 lb, sliced 
Salt and pepper to taste 
1 Onion, chopped 

Soak beans overnight.  Pour beans and water into crockpot.

Brown beef and sausage.  Drain excess fat.  Stir all ingredients into
beans in crockpot.  Cook on low for 6-10 hours.  Check occasionally and
add water if necessary.
Serve with rice.
