Delicious as a side dish to Mexican fare or as a vegetarian taco filling. Easy, cheap and healthy with tons of flavor. My extremely picky boyfriend not only ate this but actually complimented me on it! You may use fresh onion if you like but picky bf doesn't like it so I use the powder. This is also nice garnished with fresh cilantro if you have it.
