Although I was always interested in cooking, I never got a chance to do much of it until I got married. I used to only rely on cookbooks, but over time, I became more confident and started creating my own recipes. This is one I'm especially proud of. - Giovanna Garver, Paonia, Colorado Ingredients:
1 pound dried black beans |
6 cups water |
1 can (28 ounces) diced tomatoes, undrained |
1 pound ground beef, cooked and drained |
4 medium potatoes, peeled and cubed |
2 medium onions, chopped |
1 can (16 ounces) enchilada sauce |
1 envelope chili seasoning |
1 tablespoon sugar |
2 teaspoons salt |
1 teaspoon garlic powder |
Directions:
1. Place the beans in a soup kettle or Dutch oven; add water to cover by 2-in. Bring to a boil; boil for 2 minutes.
