PORK CHORIZO - BLACK BEAN CASSEROLE



Pork Chorizo - Black Bean Casserole image

This came about when I was making a Black Bean Dip. The shaker top came off a bottle of hot sauce and I got a deluge instead of a dash. I tried to save it by making a bigger batch but then that was way too much for a dip. Logic called for a complete change in direction. This is the result. Not bad, not bad at all.

This recipe comes from a May 1987 issue of Bon Appetit in a "Mexican Cooking Goes Light" article. It is chef Jorge De'Angelo's and is best if prepared one day ahead of when you want to serve the beans.
