Cuban Black Beans

• 1 16oz package dry black beans
• 1 tsp. dry oregano
• 2 cloves minced garlic
• 1 tbsp. salt
• 2 tbsp. Olive Oil
• ½ cup chopped Bell pepper
• ½ cup diced onion
• 1 tomato

Place dry black beans in a large pot of water on the stove. Allow to soak overnight.

Drain and rinse beans. Place beans in crock-pot. Add about 4 cups of water, just enough to cover.

In a small skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add Bell pepper, onion, and garlic. Saute until onion is translucent. Add to beans in pot.

Take a whole tomato and cut it into quarters and place it in the crock pot with the beans.

Add your seasonings; Oregano, Salt, and a dash of pepper. Place lid on beans and leave in a crock-pot on low for 8-10 hours. Just as delicious!
