My first attempt to use black beans as the dinner "main event"...Rave Reviews! I added cilantro, paprika, fresh chilis and lime. Subbed cider vinegar, and left out the bell pepper. Oh and more garlic. It was so good it didn't even need cheese :) Definitely a keeper - 3/26/10

This recipe was okay, but ended up tasting similar (but not nearly as good) to a recipe I've been making for years, so I doubt I'll be making this again. I don't think it's necessary to add so much water, as it makes the final bean mixture too soupy. Tastes great with salsa and light sour cream. - 4/30/13
