Quick Black Beans and Rice

Vicki July 08, 2016
I'm not sure this can even be considered a recipe, given it is super easy and takes less than 5 minutes to prepare.

I love this meal for weeknights when cooking seems like too much trouble.  It is also great in the summer-time as it does not require use of oven or stovetop.

Uncle Ben's ready rice makes preparation a breeze, only takes 90 seconds in the microwave.  Canned beans and prepared pico de gallo speed things up as well.
