Boracho Bean Soup or Frijoles a la Charra (Restaurant Style)

This is the closest recipe I've found to the Restaurant-Style Mexican Boracho Bean Soup that I like so much. (Anita)
"I have made these beans numerous and did some modifications to speed it up.
I use the large 53 oz. can of Bush's Best Pinto Beans rather than dried.
In addition, I added 1-2 Knor chicken bouillon cubes and 2-4 cups water
to make it "soupier".
Tastes GREAT and is really fast! The "boys" really love it!

3. Add onion, jalapeno, cilantro, Ro-tel tomatoes (undrained) and saute approximately 4 minutes over medium heat.
4. Add to cooked pinto beans and blend. Serve hot.
Please note that you can omit the Jalapeno pepper if you add the Ro-Tel tomatoes, since Ro-tel has Jalapeno in it.

I loved this!! I actually cheated and used a can of pinto beans, and cut the other ingr. down by 1/2. It taste better to me than what you get when you go out to eat. Thank you so much!

I was looking at this recipe with my niece (who is mexican and cooks mexican dishes) and she said Boracho means drunk in spanish and the only thing missing in this recipe is a bottle of beer. She is a VERY GOOD cook.

Very easy, and it really does taste like the Boracho soup from restaurants. I used the Rotel and the Jalapeno and it still wasn't overly spicy. If you like a spicier soup, you might want to add another Jalapeno.
