Black beans are delicious in salads, salsa, with a little coconut milk with basil and thyme, or just on their own with a little seasoning.

One day while I was just seeing what I could add with the tacos I was cooking I remembered that we had a few cans of black beans. So what did I do….you got it! I made my own recipe using simple ingredients.

This meal took me less than 15 minutes to prepare.

Ingredients

2 cans black beans (drained)

1 small can green chilis

2 tbsp chili powder

1 tbsp Mexican oregano

2 tsp cumin

2 cloves garlic diced

1 tomato diced or chopped

1 tbsp coconut oil

Directions

Heat pan and add coconut oil. Add garlic and saut? for 2 minutes. Add Black Beans, seasonings, and tomatoes and cook for an additional 5 minutes on medium heat. Turn heat off and add green chilies.

Serve with brown rice, as a side with tacos or burritos, or just enjoy this dish a la carte.
