Ingredients:

  • 1 (16 oz) package dried pinto beans
  • 1 (8 oz) jar salsa, mild , medium, hot whatever you prefer (the chunkier the better)
  • 1 -2 tsp onion powder
  • 1 -2 tsp garlic powder
  • 4 1/2 cups water
  • 1/2 lb andouille sausage (if not andoullie any kind of spicy sausage will work)

Directions:

  1. Rinse and sort beans to get any unwanted material out.
  2. Soak Beans overnight 1 lb to 6 cups of water, I usually add a little bit of salt to my soak. The package also lists directions for a quick soak but I prefer to soak mine overnight.
  3. Drain beans after soaking. You may use the same water you soak them in, it adds flavor and contains nutrients but, it causes an increase in flatulants.
  4. Place the beans in the crock pot followed by the jar of salsa and 4 1/2 cups of water.
  5. Stir in onion powder, garlic powder and dried onion flakes.
  6. Add sausage (I cut mine into 1/2 inch round pieces).
  7. Cook on low for 8 hours or on high for 4. Stir occasionally and add more water if neccessary.
  8. Add salt to taste and Enjoy with cornbread! Yummy!
