Aztec Black Beans

An easy crock pot dish using just two ingredients for delicious flavorful beans without any fat. 

You must soak the beans the night before.

1 pound dried black beans (or turtle beans)
16 ounce jar salsa (your favorite kind) or use home made


Rinse beans, removing any foreign objects. Place in a large bowl and cover with water and allow to soak at room temperature overnight.

Drain beans and place in a crock pot with the salsa and stir. Add enough water just to cover the beans. Cover and cook on low all day, 8 - 10 hours.

Yield: 10 - 12 side dish servings or 6 - 8 main dish servings.

These freeze well.
