I give 100% credit to Mary Jane's Farm magazine, Aug-Sept 2013 edition. This recipe is very easy and these beans, are so good! They have a light sweet taste to them. For my husband to not say "let's add this or that nex time" really says alot about this recipe. He really loved it. Enjoy!

Time 4h45m

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 c anasazi beans, soaked overnight.
1 lb ground chorizo
1 yellow onion, peeled and diced
6 garlic cloves, minced
2 red bell peppers, seeded and diced
2 habanero peppers, seeded and diced
1/4 c dark brown sugar
2 tsp salt
2 tsp chili powder
1 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
1/4 Tbsp red pepper flakes
2 can(s) 14.5 oz cans of low-salt tomato sauce

Steps:

  • 1. Place pre-soaked beans in a 5 quart Dutch oven. Cover beans with water 2" above bean, bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 1.5 hours. Drain water from beans and replace with 2 cups of fresh water. (I did NOT drain and replace the water. I kept what I had in the oven.)
  • 2. Preheat oven to 350*.
  • 3. Meanwhile, brown chorizo in a skillet and add to the beans. Add remaining ingredients to the beans and mix well. Cover Dutch oven and bake for 2 1/4 hours or until beans are tender.
