Mother made this dish for field lunches during cotton harvest. My husband, Jeff, and I have a 1-1/2-year-old daughter. I plan to pass Mom's recipes on to her.
Ingredients:
1 pound dried pinto beans
1 boneless pork loin roast (3 pounds)
7 cups water
1/2 cup chopped onion
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 to 3 teaspoons ground cumin
2 tablespoons chili powder
1 tablespoon salt
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 can (4 ounces) chopped green chilies
corn chips
shredded cheddar cheese
diced avocado
diced tomatoes
chopped green onions
salsa
Directions:
1. Place first 10 ingredients in a large kettle. (Beans do not need to be soaked.) Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer, covered, about 3 hours or until beans and roast are tender. Remove roast; cool slightly. Remove meat from bones; shred with a fork. Return meat to kettle. Cook, uncovered, until thick, about 30 minutes. Serve over corn chips. Pass remaining ingredients as toppings. Yield: 10-12 servings.
