2 cups water
1 tablespoon olive oil
sazon goya
1 bay leaf
½ teaspoon adobo seasoning
12 small onion, diced small
12 green bell pepper, diced small
1 -2 slice bacon

3
Bring to a low boil for about 1 hour or until water just barely covers the beans.
4
Check beans for tenderness.
5
Add in bacon, onion, and green pepper and keep at a low boil for about 1/2 hour or until water is mostly absorbed.

When water is mostly absorbed, check beans for tenderness.

They should be soft when pierced with a fork, and there should still be liquid in the pot.

If all the water is absorbed, pour in about a half cup more (just enough to keep it like a thick sauce).
