Jen'S Cheater Borracho Pinto Beans - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 onion, diced
    4 slices bacon, cut into small pieces (I use Wright's)
    2 garlic cloves, minced
    1 can rotel tomatoes and green chilies, original, do NOT drain
    4 (16 ounce) cans pinto beans, rinsed in hot water (I use Bush's)
    2 -4 tablespoons fiesta brand pinto bean seasoning, season to taste
    2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
    water
Preparation
    Cook bacon & onion together in large pot. Do not add oil.
    When bacon and onion are almost done, stir in garlic. Do not drain bacon grease!
    Add can of rotel with juice. Stir all together.
    Add pinto beans, seasoning to taste, and water to cover the beans. I just pour the seasoning in and stir until the water turns orangey-red.
    Cook on low until ready to serve.
    Add cilantro & serve.
    I also make this in a crockpot and simmer it all day, nobody will ever know the difference!
