Easy dinner...Mexican style

Start with dry black beans, rinsed and picked over. Ok so I just put that in there...they ALWAYS say to pick over the beans....I have never found anything but beans in my beans but I guess one can never be too careful. So when you have them picked over pop them into your crock pot and add some chicken broth. Then add some cumin and some chili powder and some red pepper and onion and garlic. If ya wanna get fancy you could add lime juice at the end. I cook them on high and add more broth or chicken broth as the beans absorb the moisture. At the end of the day when they are nice and soft, mash them and grate some cheese over the top. Make some rice and serve with chips, tomatoes, olives, avocado, sour cream and salsa! Easy cheap dinner!!
