Great with enchiladas, tacos, and nachos. Ingredients:
1 lb dried pinto bean |
4 cups water |
2 tablespoons chili powder |
1 tablespoon garlic powder |
2 tablespoons salt |
1/4 cup bacon grease or 1/4 cup shortening |
1 medium onion, finely chopped |
Directions:
1. Soak beans in cold tap water for 6 to 8 hours. Drain water and rinse thoroughly. Inspect pintos and discard and unsuitable beans or debris. Place beans in large heavy pot. Place pot over heat and bring to boil. Cover and reduce heat, simmering for 4 to 6 hours, stirring occasionally. Beans are done when they become very tender.
2. Stir or mash beans until approximately half are mashed and the remainder of the beans are left whole. If it appears that there will be too much water and beans will be too runny, pour off part of liquid and reserve for use later if needed.
3. Heat grease or shortening in large heavy skillet over medium high heat. Add onions and saute until transparent. Add bean mixture and heat thoroughly.
