Mexican Delightfulness


This recipe doesn't have a name, we made it up today. But it's so good!!

Layer in this order:
1-corn tortilla
2-black beans
3-pico de gallo
4-red pepper sauce

Black beans-I used my electric pressure cooker. I did 8 cups water, 2 and 1/2 cups dried beans (not soaked), some garlic, onion, oregano, cumin, etc. I did high pressure for 32 minutes, then natural pressure release for about 20 or so minutes.

Pico de gallo-I have a little food processor that's perfect for small batches of salsas. But you can always use a knife and cutting board! I chopped 3 roma tomatoes, 1 medium yellow onion, and about 1/2-1 cup cilantro. Then I poured in the juice from one lime. You can add a little sea salt as well.

1 red bell pepper
1 clove garlic
3 tsp. sea salt
2 limes juiced
2 cups distilled water
