What's Cookin? Pinto Beans & Ground Beef Stew Under Pressure
With Winter just around the corner, the stews are getting heartier, the soups heavier. This recipe is perfect to go with Mexican food, like Spicy Not So Mexican Rice. I used dry beans, but you could substitute canned beans if you prefer. I adapted the recipe from one onKalyn's Kitchen.
Oh, and enjoy!
Ingredients:
- 1 cup dried pinto beans, unsoaked (or can use 2 cans pinto beans, rinsed and drained)
- about 2 T olive oil, divided (will depend on your pan)
- 1 lb. low-fat ground beef
- 1 onion, chopped
- 1 T minced garlic
- 2 tsp. dried oregano
