A simple healthy choice

[Ukase]

I call this black bean stew. 

Sautee the pepper and onions in a pan - use olive oil or just water. 

Combine the following: 

4 cans of black beans (or you can get the beans from a bag and boil them yourself - a lot cheaper, healthier, but not quite as soft.) 

1 can of corn (or you can scrape them off the cob if you like)

2 cans of diced tomatoes. (or dice three tomatoes of the vine if it pleases you) 

The sauteed veggies already mentioned: 

1 diced onion

2 diced green peppers

You can add diced ham, or diced chicken or even tofu if you like. This stuff really needs no seasonings by my taste - but that's just my opinion.

Love black beans! I add some avocado to it as well, the flavor is amazing when you mix all the ingredients. Thank you for sharing the recipe @Ukase.

I'm just not sure how I feel about that. Avocado is green! I just don't think it would look that good in there...and I confess - I loathe the taste of it. 

But - aside from my minority opinion on the ugly green superfood, I'm glad you like it. 

For those trying to build muscle - a 1/4 cup of brown rice should complete the protein found in the black beans. I can't recall if I mentioned that before.

Hahahaha, I can understand that. It doesn't look that good maybe, I think that it's because I love avocado and I add it to whatever food I can . With or without it, this recipe is delicious!
