I found these dried beans in the Mexican section at Wal-mart. They taste similar to Pinto’s, but way better and creamier.

1 lb. dried mayocoba beans (check for stones as I found several small ones in my bag)

Rinse the beans and add to a pressure cooker with 5-6 c. of boiling water. Close pressure cooker and boil for 5 minutes. Turn off the burner and leave the pot on the burner, closed, for 30 minutes.

Open the pressure cooker and stir in a 1/2 t. oil and close the pressure cooker. Bring to a boil and then turn down to med low heat for 20 minutes.

Open the pressure cooker and add 1 t. salt and 1 T. Better than Boullion(vegetable flavor) and stir well to mix in.

1 carrot, chopped small
1 onion, diced
2 stalks celery, diced
4 cloves of garlic, sliced thin
1 t. oil
1 t. cumin
1/2 t. salt

Add oil to a hot frying pan and toss in garlic, onion, carrots and celery. Stir frequently over high heat for about 5 minutes. Add the cumin and salt. Stir well to coat and cook 1-2 more minutes until the veggies are tender crisp.

Add the veggies to the pot of beans and simmer for about 5 minutes. Add salt to taste.
