The Best Pinto Beans Ever

Cook in crock pot on high for 4 hours
1 bag of dried pinto beans-washed and debris removed
(sometimes there will be small stones and dirt from the garden)
2 1/2 qt water
1 heaping T chicken base
1 heaping T Cajun seasoning
1/8 c olive oil
1 onion chopped
1/2 bell pepper chopped
1 t garlic powder
1/3 to 1/2 chipotle chili in adobo sauce (adds spice and heat) found canned in Mexican food isle
Note: You can use this recipe for other dried beans also.
I freeze my chipotles on a coated paper plate, then you can easily remove desired amount.
