Zippy Bean Stew - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 (14 1/2 ounce) cans chicken broth (I used garlic, low sodium can be used as well)
2 (16 ounce) cans kidney beans, drained
2 (15 ounce) cans pinto beans, undrained (you can drain if you like)
2 (14 1/2 ounce) cans diced tomatoes with mild green chilies, undrained
2 (4 ounce) cans chopped green chilies, undrained (optional)
2 (15 ounce) cans corn, undrained (doesn't matter whether it's golden corn or white corn. Either is fine. If you use cream corn it tend)
1 -3 cup water
4 medium carrots, chopped
1 onion, chopped
4 garlic cloves, minced
4 teaspoons chili powder
salt (optional)
1 dash cayenne pepper

Preparation

In a large pot, combine all the ingredients.
Bring to boil on medium heat for 15-30 minutes.
Reduce heat, cover and simmer for about 30 more minutes or until flavors are blended.
Add seasonings to taste (2 teaspoons of salt ought to be enough).
Add other seasonings--spice it up a bit.
This recipe is very flexible, this is just the original ingredients, except I added the cayenne pepper and the salt.
Switch the beans around.
I will use lima beans, or great northern beans.
Any type of bean can be substituted.
Heck, use 4 different types of beans.
It makes for a great healthy meal.
You can use 1 can pinto beans, 1 can kidney beans, 1 can great northerns, and 1 can lima beans.
It's a very flexible recipe you can add your own stuff to.
