RECIPE: Crockpot Pinto Beans

INGREDIENTS:
1 pound pinto beans, dry
Water
½ teaspoon oregano
½ teaspoon cumin, ground
2 teaspoons garlic, minced
1½ teaspoons salt

INSTRUCTIONS:
1: Sort the beans. Remove any stones, debris or withered beans. Rinse well.
2: Place beans in a crockpot. Cover with cold water and soak 8 hours or overnight.
3: After soaking, drain and rinse the beans.
4: Return the beans to the crockpot. Cover with 7 cups of clean, cold water.
5: Stir in the rest of the ingredients except the salt.
6: Cook on high for 4 1/2 - 5 hours or on low 8 1/2 - 9 hours. Cook until the beans are soft.
7: Add the salt when the beans are almost finished. Add more spices at this time if desired.
8: Cook until the beans are as tender as you like them.

NOTES:
These pinto beans are delicious over rice, potatoes, couscous, quinoa and in a taco salad. They are a good side dish, filling for burritos and on tostadas.

You can mash them with a fork or potato masher and use them like refried beans.

Add a medium diced onion if desired.

The pinto beans may take more or less time to cook depending on your crockpot or slow cooker.

The longer the soaking time, the shorter the cooking time.

One pound of dry beans is about 2 cups.
