About me: I collect cookbooks and love to cook and try new recipes. I tested recipes for Leite's Culinaria for almost eight years. I learned to cook from many good southern cooks including my Mom, Dad, several Aunts and my Grandmothers. My children and husband also like to cook and try new foods and recipes. My son still lives with us but our daughter is married. She often visits to cook with me. We are adventuresome eaters willing to try new things.

I have been making taco junk in my slow cooker for years. This recipe is very similar to that. I added a packet of dry ranch dressing to this one since I love that in the taco junk. My beans much not have contained enough liquid since I got a burn notice on my instant pot while coming to pressure. I hit cancel and scraped the bottom of the pot. Then added a half cup of warm water and continued with the recipe and it came out perfect. Yummy on a cold winter night. We ate with some toppings, Mexican Cheese blend, sour cream, diced tomatoes, green onions and tortilla chips.
