Crystal’s Chili Bean Soup
Heat 2 T. oil in large soup pot.
Chop up and add:
1 onion
1/2 a green pepper, optional
Cook until the onion is soft.
Then add:
3 cups small red beans
12 cups water
1 Tablespoon salt
Bring to boil, cover and simmer for 2 1/2 to 3 hours. Stir occasionally. After
beans are soft add:
1 Tablespoon chili powder
1 can Rotel tomatoes with green chilies (this brand of tomatoes is usually found
with the other tomatoes at your local grocery store)
Hamburger that has been cooked and drained can be added to this, but is optional
and we usually don’t bother.
