Black Beans

Black Beans
Fill the crock-pot ¾ full of water. Add 2 C. black beans. Take out any beans that float to the top. Add ½ of and onion, sliced. Add 1 clove of garlic minced. Add 1 Tbl. salt. Cook for 5-6 hours on High or until beans are soft.

About 20 minutes before the beans are done, start caramelizing the other half of the onion. In a frying pan add ½ cup canola oil and onion. Brown onion until golden.

Drain the bean and save the juice. Add the beans and 1 cup of the juice to the oil and onions. Continually stir until the beans get creamy and not to liquidly. If needed add more of the juice.

After about 20 minutes in the frying pan the beans will begin to be very creamy. This means they are perfect!

Brown corn tortillas and put beans inside and fold in half. Serve
