Easy Drunken Beans recipe

This dish is best at room temperature, although it is good hot or cold also. I have given just the basic recipe; you can add all kinds of things, like corn, fresh tomatoes, cilantro, scallions, blanched chayote squash, etc.

This tasty side dish made with pinto beans, salt pork and jalapeno peppers goes great with rice or even bread bowls.

Speedy fried beans, pre-cooked rotisserie chicken and bagged coleslaw make this a speedy weeknight main dish a welcome change.
