Pork and Pinto Bean Stew(crockpot) image

This meal was born out of desperation! I hadn't been to the grocery and just had to cobble something together from what I had on hand. What I had was a small pork roast and half a bag of pinto beans! Desperation never tasted so good!

2 qt water
1 small onion, chopped
1 green chili, diced(or 4 oz. can diced green chili)

  • 1. Heat oil in skillet and cook and stir cubes of pork until nicely browned on all sides.
  • 2. Add pork, soaked and drained beans,water and all remaining ingredients(except fresh cilantro, if using) to crock. Cook on high 5 or six hrs. until beans are very tender. Stir in fresh cilantro

This stew is a great way to use up leftover pork. I also like to add a can of diced tomatoes to the stew. It gives it a nice acidity.

I followed the recipe exactly and the stew turned out great. The only thing I would change next time is to add a little more salt. Other than that, it was perfect.
