• 2 cans (15 1/2 oz. each) black beans, rinsed, drained
• 1 can (15 1/2 oz.) chili-style tomato sauce with diced tomatoes
• 1 medium onion, chopped
• 2 tsp. chili powder
• 1 tsp. salt
• 1 tsp. ground cumin
• 1/2 tsp. pepper
• 1 cup prepared thick-and-chunky style salsa

Instructions

Combine all ingredients except salsa in Dutch oven; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover tightly and simmer 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 hours, or until beef is fork tender.

Just before serving, stir in salsa; heat thoroughly.

Suggestions
