Chalupa

Another post about beans. This one has pinto beans in it. They are easily stored and probably in everyones storage. This is a good way to use them up!
I have had people ask me if this recipe works in the crock pot, I would imagine it does, but I have never tried it that way.

Chalupa
2 lb. pork roast
1 lb. pinto beans
1 chopped onion
2 cloves garlic, chopped
2 T. chili powder
1 can green chilies, chopped
1 tsp. ground cumin
1 tsp. oregano
1 T. salt
(you can omit any of the spices if you dont have them on hand. You can also add some salsa after it is finished cooking to liven it up a little if you want)

Put all ingredients(everything is raw. beans and meat) in a big pan and cover with water. (The roast will be sticking out a bit). Bring to boil on stove, covered. Then place, covered, in oven on 300 degrees for 4-6 hours, or until done. Shred roast and continue to cook with lid off until thickened. Serve over tortilla chips with salsa, cheese, tomatoes, lettuce, ect. Or you can put it in a warm tortilla for a burrito.
