Black beans and rice

So, this isn't a very exciting recipe. It's great for health and using your food storage. And I think it tastes really good.

The portion size is based on our family. You may need to adjust.

3 cans of black beans
1 clove of garlic, minced
1/2 cup of diced onions
1 tsp. to 1 Tb. of cumin
Salt and Pepper to taste

Combine all ingredient and cook until onions are opaque.

Cook Rice. You can use either white or brown. I like to cook the rice with chicken broth instead of water.

Put rice on plate and then beans. Here is a list of stuff that I like on it:

Cheese
Tomatoes
Pico de gallo
cilantro
avocado
fresh squeezed lemon or lime
sour cream

This meal tastes like the inside of a really good burrito. You could add shredded beef or chicken and make burriots out of it. We really like this meal and like I said, it uses foodstorage stuff. It's also very easy!
