Ingredients

    2 Cans of black beans, drained and rinsed
    2 cans of pinto beans, drained and rinsed
    4 ears of fresh corn, scraped off the cob
    1 can of Rotel original tomatoes with green chilies
    1 small can of diced green chilies
    2 fresh tomatillos, diced
    1 tsp. taco seasoning
    salt and pepper to taste

Tips

Add more ingredients if you like, such as, grated onions, garlic, cilantro, cumin and other kinds of beans. This version is not too spicy for the kids, but if you like it hot, add jalapenos!


Directions

Place all ingredients in a large pot or dutch oven and bring to a simmer. If it is too dry, add another can of tomatoes or some water. Taste for more seasonings. I consider it done when the tomatillos melt into the sauce.
