Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 Cups Dried pinto beans -- washed
1 large onion -- chopped
2 Cloves garlic -- minced
1 Bay leaf
1/2 Liter Smoked ham -- chopped
2 Cups Canned chopped tomatoes
1/2 Cup Chopped bell pepper
2 Teaspoons Chili powder
2 Teaspoons Brown sugar
1/2 Teaspoon Dry mustard
1/4 Teaspoon Oregano
Cover beans with water and let soak overnight. Drain beans,
discarding soaking water. In crock pot, cover beans with fresh water and
add remaining ingredients. Cook on LOW for 6-8 hours, until beans are
tender. Taste beans, add salt if necessary (don't add salt at the
beginning of cooking time - it will make the beans tough!).
