Ingredients
- 4 lices Bacon
- 1 shallot minced
- ½ garlic minced, clove
- 2 tablespoon red bell pepper minced
- 3 pinto beans drained, canned
- 1 tablespoon bacon fat
- ½ cup water
- ½ cup Mexican cheese shredded
- 2 tablespoon cilantro minced
- 2 tablespoon green onion sliced
Instructions
- Cook bacon in a cast iron skillet until crispy. Reserve 1 tablespoon of bacon fat to the side. Remove bacon from pan, crumble, and put to the side. Then cook shallot, garlic, and bell pepper on medium heat for 5 minutes or until browned (but not burnt).
- Once the veggies are cooking in a food processor puree pinto beans and slowly add the ½ cup of water. Then add the 1 tablespoon of bacon fat and the veggies. Puree for 30 seconds until well incorporated.
- Add the pureed beens back to the cast iron skillet with bacon grease. Cook on medium heat for 5 minutes mixing a few times. Top with shredded Mexican cheese, cilantro, green onions, and crumbled bacon. Serve immediately.
Notes
- I love to top these with crumbled bacon and shredded cheese! They are the perfect side dish for Taco Tuesday.
