Notes about this recipe

    p. 14 I’ve been looking for shortcuts to make weeknight cooking more efficient and since this recipe called for black beans that had been cooked and drained, I figured I could use canned black beans instead and, turn out a quick weeknight dinner. This recipe was very quick and delicious.Onion and bell peppers are cooked in oil over high heat. I also added some chopped garlic. If you are using cilantro, this goes in next. I was using basil instead so I held off adding this more delicate herb until we were almost ready to serve. I also added some chili flakes since the head note mentions that sometimes folks top this dish w hot sauce. This was quick and tasty and although it was perfectly filling and a meal unto itself, I did serve mr bc’s w a piece of grilled chicken on the side. The leftovers made great lunches and the dish was still very tasty when served at room temperature.
