2 carrots
1/2 cup of shredded coconut
1 teaspoon of cinnamon

GUIDE TO COOKING BEANS:

A little guide to beans:  This process apply to 1 to 40 cups of beans.
1. Purchase beans. :)     Lentils do not apply here even thought they are a Legume.
2. Spread beans out on a tray, look over for rocks, remove any thing that does not look edible.
3. Wash bean.
4. Put beans in a huge pot and cover with water, make sure beans are really submerged, because they will soak up the water, so use ample water.
5. Soak over night. Don't worry about having a timer.
6. In the morning rinse beans with clean water and put in a cooking pot and cover with water.
6a. or rinse bean, drain and store in refrigerator until you can cook them. 1 day max.
7. Lid off bring to a boil.   Watch beans they create a foam that tends to rise. To control this Turn it down to medium high. When you can see he beans being agitated by the boiling water turn to low, let cook.
8. Test beans periodically. The beans should be tender, but not nutty.  When you think their done take a few out and cool them put a tad of salad dressing on them and eat.

When cutting meat, leave it a not solid frozen, but more than slightly frozen, this make is easier to cut.

Meat + Knife = Slice

Slice off small medallions.

Here is just an example of the three different way you can cut the meat if you want. The one's in the top hand right corner are just the cut meat, how ever you could use them at that size.
The diced meat at the bottom right hand corner is the method I used.
