Mexican Beans with Chorizo and Greens

  • Number of Servings: 4
Ingredients
8 oz Chorizo, pork and beef 1 package (10 oz) Spinach, fresh 3.5 cup Beans, black 2 tbsp Chile Chipotle in Adobo sauce (by MLEMLE) 3 oz Goat Cheese, Soft .5 cup, chopped Onions, raw
Directions
In a medium-large heavy pot (such as a Dutch oven), cook the chorizo over medium heat, stirring regularly and breaking up clumps, until lightly browned and thoroughly done, about 8 to 10 minutes.
While the chorizo is cooking, place the spinach or Swiss chard in a microwaveable bowl, cover with plastic wrap, poke a few holes in the top and microwave on high until completely wilted, usually about 2 minutes for spinach, 3 minutes or so for Swiss chard. Uncover the bowl and set aside.
When the chorizo is ready, add the beans, chopped chipotles, and 1 ½ cups water. Simmer for 5 to 10 minutes to blend the flavors. Taste and season with salt, usually about ½ teaspoon, depending on the saltiness of the chorizo and beans. Add the wilted greens and let the mixture return to a boil.
Ladle into bowls and serve, passing the cheese and onion for each person to add.
