Regina's Beans

We love Regina's tacos, taquitos and beans! Over the years she has generously fed us this meal at her house and has brought it to us after babies were born and as a Christmas gift! 


This recipe is for about 1-2 lbs of  dry pinto beans. 
Beans take about 6 hours to cook, so make sure to start with enough time. 

In a large stock pot, add beans and cover with water about an inch or two above the beans. 
Add 3-4 cupped handfuls of salt. 
Bring the beans to a rolling boil then add about 5 garlic cloves. 
Turn the heat down so the beans come to a simmer. Cover with a lid and cook until beans are soft. 
Check the beans all day and add very hot tap water as needed. 

Such a simple recipe, but so so yummy!
