Southern style pintos (also referred to as “soup beans” in some areas of southern Appalachia). One of the best tasting, most filling, relatively healthy, and supremely cheap meals to make.
I did these in the instant pot because I couldn’t start until after 6pm. Used two smoked ham hocks, the small amount of meat on which was shredded and added back to the beans once cooked. Bones/tendons/skin was discarded.
Eating now with fresh diced onions and crispy bacon bits (the fat from which was used to brown the onions and garlic that went in before cooking the beans) as a topping, and jalapeño cheddar cornbread. Packed with protein and fiber. And just a bit of fat to keep you feeling full.
Leftovers will be even better tomorrow when everything sits together in the fridge overnight…
