Ingredients
* 2 onion, peeled and halved * 6 cups dry pinto beans, rinsed * 1 fresh jalapeno pepper, seeded and chopped * 4 tablespoons minced garlic * 3 tablespoons salt * 1 tablespoon fresh ground black pepper * 2 teaspoon ground cumin, optional * 18 cups water
Directions
1. Place the onion, rinsed beans, jalapeno, garlic, salt, pepper, and cumin into a slow cooker. Pour in the water and stir to combine. Cook on High for 8 hours, adding more water as needed. Note: if more than 1 cup of water has evaporated during cooking, then the temperature is too high.
2. Once the beans have cooked, strain them, and reserve the liquid. Mash the beans with a potato masher, adding the reserved water as needed to attain desired consistency.

    With 3 tablespoons of salt your sodium count is WAY off on this recipe. - 2/2/11

    Did the same as above - cut everything in half and made whole cup portions. Delicious and WAY less sodium than from the can! - 7/25/10

    I love this recipe! I cut everything in half (1 onion, 3 cups of beans, 9 cups of water, etc.) except I use a whole jalapeno and add paprika. I drain the liquid and use a hand mixer to mash the beans. - 7/7/10

    Cooked mine on the stove for 1 hr. & 45 min. Added salt after liquid drained (used way less salt this way and didn't stop beans from softening.) Also used jarred jalapeno (no fresh on hand) and did add the optional cumin. Delish! I hate FF canned, so this was awesome - kids loved it too. Thanks! - 2/17/14
