Three Bean Chipotle Chili image

Adapted from the back of a can of S&W brand tomatoes. My family loves this one, and it's so quick and easy to make. One of my faves, too. The original recipe is kicking spicy, and I had to tone it down for my spice-wimps. They STILL say it is too spicy how I make it. Watch out for those chipotle chilis in adobo sauce. They are extremely hot. I use low sodium tomatoes and low sodium beans whenever possible.

1 tablespoon chipotle chile in adobo, chopped (original recipe called for 3. Buy a can)
1 (15 ounce) can black beans, drained
1 (15 ounce) can pinto beans, drained
1 (15 1/4 ounce) can kidney beans, drained
cilantro (to garnish) (optional)
