PRESSURE COOKER RANCH STYLE BEANS



Pressure Cooker Ranch Style Beans image

I've been experimenting with my electric pressure cooker and decided to try my hand at beans. I chose a recipe on the Homesick Texan blog but needed to improvise on some of the ingredients. After throwing everything into the pot, I suddenly realized I'd doubled everything but the beans and water! What I ended up with was a pot of pure YUM! This is a very soupy bean recipe so serve it in a bowl and not on a plate! I served mine over rice! This is a healthy, low cost and delicious way to feed your family.
