    Can substitute lard for vegtable oil; and cooked black beans, cooked red beans, or cooked white beans for cooked pinto beans. See recipe for variations.

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    Great, simple recipe to prepare beans. I used lard and added some of the suggested seasoning for Mexico.
