Ingredients

  • 16 oz reduced sodium pinto beans, rinsed, drained

  • 1 cup onion, chopped
  • 3 tsps garlic, minced
  • 2 tsps oregano leaves
  • 1 tbsp cumin
  • 4 cups reduced sodium chicken broth
  • 1 cup water
  • 2 tbsps tomato paste
  • 14 1/2 oz diced tomatoes
  • 1/2 cup cilantro, chopped
  • 1/8 cup lime juice
  • 2 tsps olive oil
