This is a recipe request for pinto beans. It is from an old work cookbook that I have had for about 26 years. It is a treasured book full of wonderful recipes and wonderful memories of some really great people!

- Reduce heat to a simmer; cover tightly and cook until beans are tender.
- Add tomatoes, dry mustard, green pepper, chili powder, brown sugar and oregano.
