THE BEST MEXICAN BEANS
These are my favorite! A lovely combo of my southern roots and my love of Mexican food...Make these as a side to your tacos and rice, a filling in your burritos, on a tostada, on brown rice, served over cornbread, or on their own. They are wonderful. They can also be adapted for whatever you are serving. Add whatever you like. I plan on adding tomatoes towards the end next time. This makes a lot and it freezes beautifully. (Prep time is soaking overnight...Also, I put 16 servings, but as a side it is more, I'm sure..I just freeze it...perfect for a party)

Steps:
- Place pre-soaked and rinsed beans in a large stockpot. Fill with water to cover two inches above beans.
- Add garlic, peppers, onion, cumin, chili powder and bring to a boil. Once it comes to a boil, lower the heat and simmer for 1 1/2 to 2 hours. I keep the lid off. Stir occasionally.
- Keep checking the beans to taste until tender and lovely. Add salt little by little until it's perfect for you.
- Add cilantro on top of individual servings. Yum!
