Slow Cooker Spicy Pinto Beans Food

PINTO BEAN RECIPE

Steps:

• Rinse and drain the beans, discard any dirt clumps or rocks. Add to the slow cooker.
• Add the onion, jalapenos, chili powder, onion powder, garlic powder, pepper, chicken broth and water to the slow cooker with the beans. Wait to add the salt.
• Cover and cook on HIGH 6-7 hours. Do not open the lid while they cook, or they will not get tender.
• When the cooking time is done mash about 1/4 of the beans with a potato masher right in the slow cooker. Or you can put a scoop in a bowl and mash with a fork and add back to the slow cooker. This will make the beans creamy, which the slow cooker can't do since the simmer is so low. Add salt to taste, I usually use 1/4 tsp.
• Serve as a side dish or as a main with tortillas or cornbread. Enjoy!
