Christina’s Notes:

Instead of using the chili powder, garlic powder, ground cumin, ground paprika, dried oregano you can use 2 packets of your favorite taco seasoning. Also feel free to use any type of beans you and your family like. To stretch this dish I sometimes put in a total of 3 cans of beans (mix and match your beans if you wish). You can cook in a crock-pot if you wish, add ingredients and cook on HIGH for 2 hours, or LOW for 4 hours. Add more or less of the stock if you want it more or less thick.
