This recipe is not worth your time. It's bland and boring.

This recipe was a disaster! The beans were undercooked and the rice was mushy. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

I thought this recipe was just okay. The beans were a little bland and the rice was a little dry. I think I would have liked it better if I had added more spices.

This dish was easy to make and packed with flavor. I used a medium-heat salsa and it was the perfect amount of spice. I served it with sour cream and guacamole and it was a delicious meal.

I've never been a huge fan of black beans, but this recipe changed my mind. The beans were so flavorful and the rice was cooked perfectly. I especially liked the kick from the jalapeño peppers. Will definitely be making this again!

This recipe was a hit with my family! The combination of spices and the smokiness from the chipotle peppers was perfect. I also loved the addition of the bell peppers and corn, which added a nice sweetness and crunch. I will definitely be making this
