1⁄2 teaspoon cumin (ground)

Prepare dry beans by soaking and cooking the day before or buy canned beans and drain them.

Notes

Choose beans with different color and texture such as 16 ounces red kidney beans, 16 ounces pinto beans, and 16 ounces great northern beans.

This recipe also lends well to crock pot cooking, 3 to 4 hours on high, or 6 to 8 on low. To make in the crock pot simply stir together all the ingredients and set crock pot to desired setting. Come home to a warm inviting chili on a cold fall evening.
