I will finally live up to my name and share a bean recipe. I use an instant pot pressure cooker to make these beans:

  • 1 cup beans (dry)
  • 3 cups water
  • 1 tsp ground cumin (?) - I usually eyeball it
  • 1 tsp chili powder (?) - I usually eyeball it
  • 1 tbsp granulated chicken flavor (Totole brand, ~2200mg sodium)

All I have to do is hit the bean/chili button and it’s done in 30 min! If I want to improve the flavor further I cook it on the stovetop with oil / fat of choice. I’m not sure how accurate the spice amounts are.

Does anyone have their own simple bean recipe?
