    I was really impressed at how these simple ingredients came together to form such a wonderful delicious meal. The house smelled so good while it was cooking, too! I served mine with shredded cheese and sour cream on top, but it was awesome on it's own as well! Thank You!Grpa P.A C. 2012

    Bistro Black Beans & Rice,VERY INEXPENSIVE…. AMAZINGLY DELICIOUS….PREPARES IN 20 MINUTES! My sister makes this amazing recipe for large and small crowds. For such a simple dish, it always impresses. My husband does not like black beans… but he ate this to be polite and LOVES it now! My children were forced to try it and now ask for it by name.,I was really impressed at how these simple ingredients came together to form such a wonderful delicious meal. The house smelled so good while it was cooking, too! I served mine with shredded cheese and sour cream on top, but it was awesome on it’s own as well! Thank You!Grpa P.A C. 2012,I’d never had black beans and rice before, but the description of FAST, EASY & DELICOUS had me curious. Delicious indeed! After reading another review, I toned down the salt, but found that I added it back and found it needed the little extra salt. This recipe was really great, and even the kids liked it. It will be a staple in our house from now on.

    1
    Done

    Thoroughly Combine Tomatoes, Olive Oil, Onion, Basil, Pepper, and 1 - 2 T Salt. Set Aside For Flavors to Meld. Stir Occasionally. (note: the Tomato Mixture Should Be Quite Salty - It Will Meld Down With the Beans and Unsalted Rice and Be Just Perfect!)
