Ok..aqui es uno de mi favoritos. Este es facil y delicioso. Y perdon, pero voy a escribir en Inglés para la receta.

Russ’ Red & Black Beans

2-3 tablespoons olive oil

1 oz dry Chorizo, chopped

• Cook chorizo in hot oil until slightly browned and fragrant

1 large onion, chopped

1-6 Serrano peppers, minced

• Add onions and serranos and cook until soft

1-2 plum tomatoes, chopped

1 clove garlic, minced

1+ chipotle pepper in adobo

• Add tomatoes, garlic and chipotle and cook 1-2 minutes

1 tbs cumin, toasted & ground

1 tbs Doña Maria Adobo paste

1 tbs Better than Broth, concentrated Chicken broth …or 1 cup chicken broth

Zest & juice of 1 lime

Dash of Pepper

Dash of Salt

*Additional optional ingredients: cocoa powder or a dark chocolate square, chopped green peppers, cinnamon, chipotle pepper powder, anything else you want.

• Add spices and sauces, stir to mix

1-10oz can Black Beans (Frijoles negros)

1-10oz can Red Beans (Habichuelas coloradas)

1 cup water or (or liquid broth if not using concentrated broth

• Mix thoroughly; bring to boil, and then simmer until the liquid is reduced to a thick sauce.

We eat these beans at least 4 times a week; they are a staple at home and go well with dinner or breakfast (or anything). They are great with grilled meats and grilled corn on the cob.

I made this recipe up over a couple years and I never measure, so the amounts vary at times. You can add or subtract ingredients and amounts to your own taste. It is a little picante here.

I don’t know if this qualifies as a Spanish recipe, but it is delicious, so I thought I’d share. Enjoy!

RussHuntley, wow your own invention.  I'll try it.

DonPerígo, we can  try RussHuntley's recipe with soy sausage instead of chorizo.

Here's one of my old standby recipes, Its quick and easy:

Black Bean Burrito Bake

Ingredients:

1 (7 oz.) can chipotle chiles in adobo sauce

1/2 cup reduced -fat sour cream

1 (15oz) can black beans, rinsed, drained

2 (8-inch) flour tortillas

cooking spray

1 cup bottled salsa

1/2 cup (2 ounces) shredded Monterey Jack cheese

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 350

2. Remove one chile from can. (or maybe just a small piece of chile if you don't like it too hot and spicy) Chop chile. Reserve remaining adobo sauce and chiles for another use.  Combine sour cream and chile in a medium bowl; let stand 10 minutes.

3. Place beans in food processor with sour cream mixture and blend until creamy.

4. Spoon 1/2 of bean mixture down the center of each tortilla.  Roll up tortillas; place, seam side down, in baking dish coated with cooking spray.  Spread salsa over tortillas; sprinkle with cheese.  Cover and bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes or until thoroughly heated.

Yields 2 burritos

Gracias Kikuyu,

Suena Bien!! Me gusta cualquier cosa con chipotles, frijoles y queso!

Si tratas mi receta, te recuerdas que las cantidades son aproximado. Todo esta mas o menos.

Russhuntley, hice la receta tuya de frijoles negros & rojos. Fue sabrosa.  La lima lo hizo super buena.
