• Cook over medium high heat, till ingredients are combined and liquid cooks down - about 5-10 minutes.
• This timing of the cooking is flexible, depending on how much seasoning you add, how much liquid is in your beans, if you add tomato sauce, etc. I make it spicy and just wet enough that it's not dried out, but not watery or gloppy.
• Adjust seasonings, salt to taste. (For me, it's often at this point when I decide if I want to add the taste of tomato sauce.).
• Serve in flour tortillas with your favorite toppings.
