LIME CUMIN BLACK BEANS

Lime Cumin Black Beans image

This can be a main meal over rice or a unique side dish. Canned beans may be used but are not as good as cooked dried beans in my opinion. A bit of hot pepper may be used to add some spice to the dish. Prep time does not include time to cook the beans.

BLACK BEANS POR CORTESíA LESLIE WITH LIME AND CUMIN

Black Beans Por Cortesía Leslie With Lime and Cumin image

I got this recipe from my dear friend Leslie, cohost of the Canadian Forum. (Por cortesia means "courtesy of") She was very thoughtful and sent to me a package of Canadian magazines for my birthday. I made this dish as a side to chicken fajitas and Mexican rice. Then- the next day I had these beans as leftovers wrapped in a steamed flour tortilla with leftover Mexican rice and they were sublime! Better than the chicken fajitas, themselves. Vegetarians should try these. The beans wrapped in tortillas along with Mexican rice form a "complete protein." Vegetarians know what I mean by this. Excelente!
