This is just an example on how to cook almost any kind of dried beans. I used pintos in this case, but will work for anything. However, nutritional info will change. Red beans have double the fiber! I like to make beans this way because it is cheaper than buying canned, and you can control the amount of sodium and flavor that goes into them. There are lots of recipes on Spark that use more spices, but I prefer to season depending on what dish I am making. These freeze nicely, so divide them and freeze in batches to use in recipes.
