Make pico de gallo from diced tomato, onion, garlic, jalapeno, and salt and lime juice.
Make homemade flour tortillas with lard. Put the beans in the tortillas, top with lots of grated cheddar and a little pico de gallo.

I’d appreciate some better details. I would be using a Le Creuset so longer cooking time than a pressure cooker. What are the proportions? Is bacon fat added in? Any spices?
I always fail at beans. They’re never soft enough. I’m at sea level but it’s like some of my disasters cooking without a pressure cooker at high altitude ski resorts. Crunchy rice. Pasta that doesn’t get to al dente. Soaking overnight and cooking forever and they still are firm.
