2. Stir in onion and garlic; cook, stirring frequently, until onion is tender, about 5 minutes. Add tomatoes, tomato sauce, and the water; bring to a boil. Cover and reduce heat to low; simmer 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
3. Add beans and peppers; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low; cover and simmer 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in cilantro and lime juice.
