I was making some rice and heating beans last
night when a bowl of chiles from my friend's garden caught
my eye...one thing led to another, and this was the result.

	Black Bean and Cashew Chili
	---------------------------

	1 small onion, diced coarse
	3 cloves garlic, minced
	1 jalapeno, seeded and diced
	1 anaheim chile, seeded and diced
	3 roma tomatoes, cut into 8ths
	1 15 oz can black beans (or prepare from dried)
	1/4 cup cashews
	1/4 cup frozen corn
	1 tsp cumin
	1 tsp chili powder
	1/2 tsp cinnamon
	1/4 tsp cayenne
	1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
	1/2 can beer (something with flavor, not coors light dry clear)
	2 tbs olive oil

Saute the onions and garlic in olive oil over a medium-low
heat until the onions turn translucent.  Add the jalapeno
and anaheim chiles and saute a few more minutes.  Add the beans
with the liquid, tomatoes, cashews, spices, and beer, and bring
to a low boil. Keep it boiling, stirring frequently, until 
most of the liquid has evaoprated (about 30-40 minutes).  About
10 minutes before it is ready, add the corn.

Serve with rice and warm tortillas.  If you're not from the planet
Vega :-) serve with a side of nonfat yogurt.
