Ingredients
- 1 pound dried black beans
- 6 cups water

- Cook on low for 8-10 hours.
- Separate into freezer friendly containers or freezer bags.
- Allow to cool completely before placing in the freezer.
- How to reheat:
- Take straight from freezer and place directly in crockpot if you are using them in a crockpot recipe (like a soup). You can cook them on low (directly from freezer) in a medium size pot until thawed and heated through.
- You can also thaw them in the fridge the night before you plan to use them.
