Ingredients

1-2	tablespoon	corn oil
1	each	onion	chopped
2	each	black beans	cans, rinsed, drained
1	teaspoon	cumin	ground
1	teaspoon	oregano	dried
1/2	teaspoon	chili powder

1	x	red hot pepper sauce (eg. Tabasco)	tabasco sauce, green, dash
1	x	salt	to taste

Directions

Heat the oil in a sauce pan. Saute the onions until brown and caramelized. Add the garlic and cook until the garlic is golden brown. Add the beans and spices and cook until hot. Remove from heat, and mash with a potato masher or process in a food processor until smooth. If the beans are too thick, you can thin them out with a little bit of picante sauce.

Serve with your favorite Mexican dish. If you want to make a bean dip, only drain one can of the black beans and add the liquid from the other can to the pot. Pinto beans will also work instead of the black beans.

Sausage-Apple Stuffed Squash

This was VERY good. I used 2 large buttercup squash instead. I also included a crumb topping combining 1/3 c. bread crumbs, 1/4 c. Parmesan and 1/4 c. shredded cheddar cheese. I then melted 3 TBS of butter and drizzled it over all. I would give five stars but end result was a bit dry, next time I make it I will try adding butter and brown sugar under meatballs.
