These beans are deliciously spiced, easy to prepare, inexpensive, and great for large crowds and BBQs! Your house will smell great!
Ingredients

- 1/2 yellow onion, chopped shopping list

How to make it
- Put beans in large pot, and add about 4 quarts of water over high heat.
- Add bouillon cubes, onion and garlic and bring to a boil.
- Reduce to low heat and add chili powder, cumin, garlic powder and bay leaf. (you can add jalapenos, if you like it spicy.)
- Simmer over low heat (you want a very slight bubbling), with lid partially over pot, for 2 hours.
- Add parsley, salt and pepper to taste (I use a couple of Tbs of salt and a couple of Tsps of pepper)
- If it becomes too salty, add hot water to pot.
- Great served with Mexican food, or over rice. Awesome with cornbread, as its own meal!
- Enjoy!
