1 lb black or red beans

water

1 16 oz or 455 gm can of tomato paste

2-3 packets Chili seasoning or taco seasoning

1) Rinse beans and put them in rice cooker. Cover with water. Cook with the top on for about 2 hours, or until beans are soft. Check regularly to add water.

2) Once the beans are soft, make sure the water is at a level where it just covers the beans a little bit. Now add the tomato paste and the seasoning packets. Stir in until uniform. The consistency should be like a watery chili. Cook for another 20 minutes or so and your ready to eat.

**you can keep this in your rice cooker and reheat for a couple days
