> 1 32 oz bag of pinto beans
> Enough water to cover the beans
> 32 oz. low sodium chicken broth (home made or from a box)
> 32 oz of water (about 4 cups)
> 5 cloves of garlic
> 1 jalapeno
> 2 tablespoons ground cumin
> 2 tablespoons ground chile powder
> 1 sprig of epazote (optional)
> Additional water *see instructions
> 1 teaspoon of salt (or more to taste)
