Ingredients:
8 ounces dried black beans, soaked and drained
2 cups water
1 tablespoon olive oil
sazon goya
1 bay leaves
1/2 teaspoon adobo seasoning
1/2 small onions, diced small
1/2 green bell peppers, diced small
1 -2 slice bacon
salt and black pepper ( to taste)

Directions:
Put beans into a pot with 2 cups cold water and bring to a boil.
Once water is boiling, add oil, sazon packet, adobo, and bay leaf.
Bring to a low boil for about 1 hour or until water just barely covers the beans. Check beans for tenderness.
Add in bacon, onion, and green pepper and keep at a low boil for about 1/2 hour or until water is mostly absorbed.
When water is mostly absorbed, check beans for tenderness. They should be soft when pierced with a fork, and there should still be liquid in the pot. If all the water is absorbed, pour in about a half cup more (just enough to keep it like a thick sauce).
Once beans are tender and you’ve got a nice thick sauce in the pot, remove from heat.
Add salt and pepper to taste.
