CLASSIC BLACK BEANS AND RICE
This is a typical dish served in Cuba or Puerto Rico, each country has their own method of preparation. You can flavor this dish with meat, but I left it out as I serve it as a side dish with my meats. It is an easy and healthy short cut and takes about 30 minutes to cook.

Add onion, pepper, and garlic; cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Add remaining ingredients. Stir mixture into beans in saucepan. Bring to a boil, reduce hat, cover, and simmer until beans are tender. Serve over hot cooked white rice.
Tips:
- Soak the black beans overnight: Soaking the beans overnight will help them cook faster and more evenly. If you don't have time to soak the beans overnight, you can also quick-soak them by boiling them for 1 minute, then removing them from the heat and letting them sit for 1 hour.
- Use a variety of vegetables: This recipe calls for bell peppers, onions, and garlic, but you can also add other vegetables that you like, such as carrots, celery, or corn.
- Season the rice with spices: Cumin, chili powder, and paprika are all great spices to use in this dish. You can also add other spices that you like, such as oregano, thyme, or bay leaves.
- Cook the rice until it is tender: The rice should be cooked until it is tender but still has a slight bite to it. If the rice is too soft, it will become mushy.
- Serve the black beans and rice with your favorite toppings: Some popular toppings include salsa, guacamole, and sour cream.
Conclusion:
This classic black beans and rice recipe is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The beans and rice are cooked in a flavorful broth with vegetables and spices, and the dish can be served with a variety of toppings. This recipe is also a great way to use up leftover black beans.
