“You better cut the pizza in four pieces because I’m not hungry enough to eat six.”
Yogi Berra

"Believe it or not, American’s eat 75 acres of pizza a day."
Boyd Matson

"The dishes of the present day are very light, and they have a particular delicacy and perfume. The secret has been discovered of enabling us to eat more and to eat better, as also to digest more rapidly....The new cookery is conductive to health, to good temper, and to long life....Who could enumerate all the dishes of the new cuisine? It is an absolutely new idiom. I have tasted viands prepared in so many ways and fashioned with such art that I could not imagine what they were."
Louis Sebastien Mercier

Chalupa

 

Ingredients

1 lb pinto beans
3 lb pork roast
7 cup water
1/2 cup onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tbsp salt
2 tbsp chili powder
1 tbsp cumin
1 tsp oregano
4 oz green chili peppers, chopped (one c, an)



 

Preparation

Put all ingredients in a dutch oven, an electric crockery cooker, or a
heavy kettle. Cover and simmer about 5 hours, or until the roast falls
apart and the beans are done. Uncover and cook about 1/2 hour, until
the desired thickness is achieved.

NOTES:

* A Mexican meat and bean dish, similar to chili -- I got this
recipe from "A Primer on Bean Cookery" by the California Dry Bean
Advisory Board. While not a true chili, chalupa is a Mexican-American
favorite for a hearty lunch or supper. It may be made ahead and
reheated, and it freezes well.

* Chili powder is a mixture of spices, consisting mainly of ground
dried chili peppers. This recipe may be served with corn chips and
condiments (including chopped tomato, chopped avocado, chopped onion,
shredded lettuce, grated cheddar cheese and hot sauce).

: Difficulty: Easy.
: Time: 5 minutes preparation, 5-6 hours cooking.
