Whenever the wife leaves you on your own for diner make something involving beans. She wont make that mistake too many times.
Ed beans.
beans
2 cloves garlic
1 small onion
2 jalapeno peppers
1 can of cream of chicken soup
soak the beans overnight and drain
dice up onion peppers and garlic
fry up some bacon right in the pot you'll cook the beans in, once it starts getting crispy take it out and toss the onion, peppers and garlic in the oil and fry it up. frying takes a lot of heat out of the peppers, chop up the bacon
once that is done remove from heat, add the beans, bacon and soup with appropriate amount of water, salt and pepper to taste and let simmer
it has a very mild kick to it but very good eating.
