Directions
Put in crockpot and cook about 4-6 hours on high or overnight on low. Beans should be soft (small white beans take longest, pinto beans shorter) add spices, veggies, etc. (see below) cook about another hour. Spices:, veggies, etc: 1) 1 tsp dried cumin, 1 tsp paprika, ¼ tsp cayenne pepper, 1-2 tbsp. soy sauce, a few chili peppers, chopped, chopped green pepper, can chopped tomotoes, some frozen corn. (good with black beans) ½ tsp liquid smoke tastes good added. 2) 1 tsp cumin, 1 can chopped green chilis, chopped green pepper, 1 tbsp soy sauce (good with white beans). 3) 1-2 tbsp soy sauce, ¼ cup molasses, ¼ tsp cayenne, ½ tsp dried mustard, (good with pinto or black eyed peas) garbanzo beans i usually use as a substiute in chicken recipes, so i"ll freeze them with just the onions and garlic. Frozen black eyed peas are also a good staple to have on hand (for some reason that"s the only legume that comes frozen except for lima beans which i don"t like)
