1, 15-ounce can of black beans, drained

1, 16-ounce can of red beans, drained

Instructions

  1. Brown the meat in a skillet, breaking it into small pieces as it cooks. Drain any excess liquid.
  2. Add meat and all other ingredients to a slow cooker or a large pot and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the dish reaches preferred temperature and the vegetables are cooked to desired tenderness. If you’re patient, let it simmer for an extra couple of hours so the flavors can all meld together. You won’t be sorry.
  3. Serve in a bowl. If it’s a cheat meal, a little sprinkle of some freshly grated cheddar cheese won’t hurt most people’s feelings.
