Pinto Beans Just Add Rice

A simple framework for some pintos you can trick out into borracho beans or as is. I use this base for red and butter beans. Hell, you could use almost any bean… Over some rice makes a meal in itself. I use can and dry beans depending on the situation. The recipe is for canned beans but for dry you're looking at about 1lb of them. Anyways too easy
