Makes 6 servings. Mix everything except beans in sauce pan. Bring to boil over medium-high heat. Cover and reduce heat to simmer. Simmer 40 minutes. Rinse and drain black beans. Stir beans into simmering rice, bring back to simmer, recover and simmer for 5 minutes until most of the water is absorbed. Remove from heat and let stand 10 minutes.
