- 4 cups of cooked beans with broth
- 2 cups of bean broth
- 1 small purple onion, finely chopped
- 1/2 cup Mexican chorizo
- 3 wiener franks, chopped into pieces
- 5 strips of bacon chopped into pieces
- 3 slices of ham, chopped into pieces
- 2 minced garlic cloves
- 1 tbsp of chopped mint or cilantro
Directions:
In a large pot cook the bacon until crispy. Once the bacon is cooked, put it on a plate with paper towels to soak up the excess fat. Leave the drippings in the pot a long with 2 tbsp of the bacon fat. Add the chorizo, wieners, ham, onion, garlic, and sauteed until the onion is translucent. Add the cooked beans, bean broth, mint leaves and bring to a boil. Once the beans are boiling smash them well with a potato smasher ( do not mix in a blender). Add the cooked bacon and simmer on low heat for 10 minutes. Add salt to taste.
