Basic Black Beans For Rice, Burritos or Dip
1 can black beans, rinsed and drained
Chicken or vegetable broth as indicated below
1 small onion, chopped
1 clove garlic, pressed or chopped fine
¼ cup fresh cilantro, chopped
1 small jalapeno pepper, chopped or ½ tsp. red pepper flakes
1 tbsp. olive oil
Heat olive oil in small saucepan. Add onion. Cover until onion sweats and almost becomes clear. Add garlic and jalapeno pepper. Do not brown garlic. When onion is clear, add beans and stir. When beans are hot, add cilantro. Serve.
Black Beans & Rice:
Add all liquid from can or use chicken broth. Spoon over rice and garnish with chopped cilantro.
Black Bean Burritos:
Beans need to be dryer for burritos so be careful how much liquid you add. Remove some of the beans from the pan and puree them in a food processor or blender. Return beans to pan. An immersion blender can be used right in the pan. Add liquid as needed. Let beans cool a bit. They will be easier to work with.
Place a spoonful of beans in the center of a whole grain tortilla. Fold over once, turn in the edges, and fold over again. Place in a baking dish or on a cookie sheet that has been sprayed or rubbed with olive oil. Lightly spray or rub top of burrito with olive oil (if not using cheese). Bake at 325 degrees for approximately 10-15 minutes until lightly brown and crispy. If made ahead, heat in a slow oven, about 250 degrees for 30 min. Garnishes may include: chopped tomatoes, salsa, chopped cilantro, cheddar cheese*, sour cream* or plain yogurt*. *regular or low-fat version
Bean Dip:
Follow recipe for black beans and rice. Blend entire mixture until smooth or leave it a little chunky. Try adding a little cumin or a tablespoon or two of your favorite salsa. Serve with crudités or tortilla chips (organic w/ no hydrogenated oils).
