Black Beans and Rice

My Carribean-style black beans and rice recipe goes great with any Latin-American main course, especially my Sweet and Spicy Carribean-style Pork Chops. It is fast, easy, and tasty even for the smallest guests at your dinner table. This side dish is gluten-free, corn-free, casein-free, and perfect for Feingold stage 1.

Ingredients:

1 (15 ounce) can of organic black beans in water

2 Tablespoons of olive oil

1/2 medium onion, chopped

1 medium red bell pepper, chopped

1 Tablespoon Cumin

2 Tablespoons of rice vinegar

1 1/2 cups uncooked rice

salt and pepper to taste is optional (I omitted and it tasted great).

Directions:

Heat a medium-sized saucepan. Add olive oil, onions and peppers. Render the vegetables (about 3-5 minutes) at medium heat. Add the cumin, vinegar and beans (do not drain). Allow the mixture to come to a soft boil, then simmer while you prepare your rice as per the box directions. When the rice is cooked, just top it off with the black beans and enjoy!
