This is an easy throw together crowd pleaser. It can be used as a side dish, by decreasing the amount of liquid or add more liquid and it will become a hearty soup. It is enough to feed several and it freezes well if you are planning ahead. Serve with garlic bread and enjoy. Ingredients:
1 lb dry pinto beans |
1 lb ground beef |
1/2 lb smoked sausage |
1 large onion, chopped |
2 garlic cloves |
1 (28 ounce) can of petite chopped tomatoes |
2 tablespoons taco seasoning |
water |
Directions:
1. Soak Pinto beans overnight in water per package directions, rinse well. 2. Brown ground beef until no longer pink. Dump rinsed beans, ground beef and smoked sausage into crock pot. Chop onion and garlic, add to crock pot. Dump in can of tomatoes and taco seasoning, stir well. Add water until liquid is 1 to 2 inches above beans. (Beans use a lot of liquid and you don't want them to get dry.) Cook on low 8- 12 hours or high 5-7 hours. Serve with garlic bread in a bowl. |
