 --------  ------------  --------------------------------
    1       lb           Pinto beans
    3       lb           Pork roast
    7       c            Water
      1/2   c            Onion, chopped
    2                    Garlic cloves,
                         -minced
    1       tb           Salt
    2       tb           Chili powder
    1       tb           Cumin
    1       t            Oregano
    4       oz           Green chili peppers,
                         -chopped (one can)
 
   Put all ingredients in a dutch oven, an electric
   crockery cooker, or a heavy kettle. Cover and simmer
   about 5 hours, or until the roast falls apart and the
   beans are done. Uncover and cook about 1/2 hour, until
   the desired thickness is achieved.
   
   NOTES:
   
   *  A Mexican meat and bean dish, similar to chili -- I
   got this recipe 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).
   
   : Difficulty:  Easy.
   : Time:  5 minutes preparation, 5-6 hours cooking.
   : Precision:  no need to measure.
