How to Make Kokopelli Anasazi Beans With Sun Dried Tomatoes

  1. Rinse and sort 1 pound of Anasazi beans.
  2. Cover beans with 8 cups of water and soak overnight in the refrigerator, or for faster preparation, bring to a boil for 5 minutes, remove from heat, cover, and let stand for 1 hour.
  3. Drain and rinse the soaked beans.
  4. In a large pot, combine the drained beans with 6 cups of fresh water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover, and simmer for approximately 1.5 hours, or until beans are almost tender.
  5. While the beans simmer, prepare the sauté. In a large skillet, sauté 1 medium onion (chopped) and 2 cloves garlic (minced) in 2 tablespoons of olive oil until translucent (about 5 minutes).
  6. Add the sautéed onion and garlic to the beans along with 1 cup sun-dried tomatoes (oil-packed, drained), 1 teaspoon chili powder, 1/2 teaspoon cumin, 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  7. Simmer uncovered for 1 hour, or until beans are tender, stirring occasionally. Add additional water (1/2 cup at a time) if needed to prevent sticking.
  8. Taste and adjust seasoning as desired before serving. Enjoy!
