Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 pound dry black beans
1 ½ quarts water
1 carrot, chopped
1 stalk celery, chopped
1 large red onion, chopped
6 cloves garlic, crushed
2 green bell peppers, chopped
2 jalapeno pepper, seeded and minced
¼ cup dry lentils

½ teaspoon dried oregano
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
