Homemade Jalapeno Black Beans | This Is Why I’m Full
These Homemade Jalapeno Black Beans are a very versatile thing to always have ready to eat, you can make a whole bunch and keep them in your freezer and just pull them out and defrost when you need a quick and easy side dish! The reason the recipe calls for so much stuff is that when we make them we make a lot. that way we don’t have to spend 45 minutes making them every time we want some!
The really cool part about this Homemade Jalapeno Black Beans recipe is that you don’t have to eat them just as a side dish, you can add a can of tomatoes and a pound of ground meat and boom you have homemade Chili! Or you can add a little more broth and some shredded chicken and you have spicy chicken soup. These beans are a staple in our little household, and we eat them all the time!
Another really great thing about these is that you can also make them in the crock pot! Just cook up the veggies and dump it all in the Crock Pot and walk away! This truly is a great recipe! Think of all the things you can make these beans into!

Just heat it enough for the flavors to mix if you’re using canned black beans
