Categories     Beans

Time 2h15m

Yield 10-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/2 lbs dry pinto beans
3/4 lb hickory smoked bacon
2 cups roma tomatoes, seeded and chopped
1 cup chopped onion
1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves
2 tablespoons chopped fresh garlic
1 tablespoon cumin powder
1 tablespoon chili powder (not a blend)
1 1/2 tablespoons salt
1/2 tablespoon fresh ground pepper
4 cups water
8 cups water

Steps:

  • Wash and clean the beans, then bring them to a boil in 4 cups of water.
  • Cook them for 2 minutes, remove from the stove, cover and let them sit for an hour.
  • In a skillet, toast the cumin and chile powder over a medium high heat until they become fragrant (takes seconds).
  • Put the spices aside and rinse the skillet.
  • Cook the bacon in the skillet, saving the fat.
  • Remove the bacon and add the onions and garlic, and saute them for a minute.
  • Seed and chop the tomatoes and chop the bacon.
  • When the beans have soaked an hour, drain them, and add 8 cups of fresh water and all the other ingredients, except the salt.
  • Bring the beans to a boil, cover, cut the heat to low, and simmer them for about an hour.
  • Remove the lid and check to see there's enough water, which should be about an inch above the beans and stay that way, then add the salt.
  • Add more water if necessary.
  • Start checking the beans every 15 minutes for doneness.
  • To thicken the liquid, reduce it by cooking longer, or mash some of the beans.

Tips:

  • Use canned beans for convenience: Canned beans are pre-cooked, making them a quick and easy addition to this recipe. If you prefer to use dried beans, be sure to soak them overnight before cooking.
  • Spice it up with chili powder: Chili powder is a key ingredient in Tex-Mex cuisine, and it adds a delicious smoky flavor to these beans. If you like your food spicy, feel free to add more chili powder to taste.
  • Add some fresh vegetables: Diced onions, bell peppers, or corn are all great additions to these beans. They add flavor, texture, and nutrients.
  • Use your favorite type of cheese: Cheddar cheese is a classic choice for Tex-Mex beans, but you can use any type of cheese that you like. Monterey Jack, pepper Jack, or queso Oaxaca are all great options.
  • Toast the bread before adding the beans: Toasted bread will help to soak up the bean juices and prevent the bread from becoming soggy.

Conclusion:

Tex-Mex beans on toast is a delicious and easy meal that can be made in just a few minutes. It's a great option for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. With its combination of protein, fiber, and flavor, this dish is sure to satisfy. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give Tex-Mex beans on toast a try!
