Ingredients
- 8 oz black beans cooked
- 1 teaspoon taco seasoning mix
- 1/2 teaspoon cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 bay leaf
- 1 lime juice
- cilantro garnish
- salt to taste.
Instructions
- Add the black beans with liquid into a skillet with taco seasoning, cumin, oregano, bay leaf, and onion powder.
- Place the skillet onto the stove on medium-high heat.
- Bring the beans to a boil stirring frequently and then reduce to low to allow the beans to thicken.
- Once the beans are done, about 15-25 minutes simmering, squeeze in the lime juice and add some chopped cilantro
Notes
- Use canned black beans to make this recipe even quicker. We recommend using cartons over cans. Make sure you use BPA free. Canned may have a tin can taste.
- Try our homemade taco seasoning instead of using store bought – it saves you money and you control the amount of sodium.
- Use the canning liquid for beans with a thick sauce, drain and rinse with water for a thin sauce – add about 1/2 cup of water to the beans to cook.
- Double the batch and make ahead for adding to lunches throughout the week – we’ve enjoyed them up to 4 days after cooking.
- You can add more cooking liquid if you like – we like our beans to be cooked down and the liquid completely reduced. This way it’s less messy in recipes too.
- Simmer for 15 minutes if you want the beans to have liquid, or simmer for 25-30 minutes if you like the liquid cooked down like ours.
