    List of Ingredients




    1 pound Pinto beans
    3 pounds Pork roast
    7 cups Water
    1/2 cup Onion, chopped
    2 Garlic cloves, minced
    1 tablespoon Salt
    2 tablespoons Chili powder
    1 tablespoon Cumin
    1 teaspoon Oregano
    4 ounces Green chili peppers, chopped (one can)

    Recipe



    Put all ingredients in a dutch oven, an electric crockery cooker, or a heavy kettle.

    NOTES:

    * A Mexican meat and bean dish, similar to chili
    This recipe is from "A Primer on Bean Cookery" by the California Dry Bean Advisory Board.
    While not a true chili, chalupa is a Mexican-American favorite for a hearty lunch or supper.
    It may be made ahead and reheated, and it freezes well.

    * Chili powder is a mixture of spices, consisting mainly of ground dried chili peppers.
    This recipe may be served with corn chips and condiments (including chopped tomato,
    chopped avocado, chopped onion, shredded lettuce, grated cheddar cheese and hot sauce).
