Ingredients
1 pound dry pinto beans
2 onions, diced
1 clove garlic, minced
2 teaspoons salt
1 1/2 teaspoons pepper
3/4 cup butter
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
Directions
1
Soak pinto beans overnight in 1 quart of water.
2
Place beans into a large saucepan, and add water to cover. Add onions,
garlic, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, then simmer over medium-low
heat until beans are tender, about 1 to 2 hours. Add additional water to
the pan as needed to prevent burning.
3
Mash the beans with a potato masher, and mix in the butter. Continue
cooking, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is thickened and the butter
is absorbed. Adjust seasonings to taste.
4
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spread the bean
mixture into a 9x13 inch baking dish, and sprinkle shredded cheese over
the top. Bake for 15 minutes, or until cheese is melted.
