Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Pinto Beans

    If using dried pinto beans, soak them in water overnight. Drain and rinse, then cook in a pot with enough water to cover them until tender (about 1-2 hours). If using canned beans, simply drain and rinse.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a skillet, heat a tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the diced jalapenos and cook for another 2-3 minutes.

  3. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine the cooked pinto beans with the sautéed onion and jalapenos. Mix well.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Dish

    Lay out a bed of shredded lettuce on a serving platter. Spoon the bean mixture over the lettuce. Top with guacamole, sour cream, and shredded cheese.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve immediately while the beans are warm. Enjoy your Payback dish!
