A friend just taught me a great easy way to dress up a can of black beans. Saute a half cup or so of sliced or chopped onions very slowly until caramelized. Then add the can of black beans (without draining them) and mix it all up. Simmer slowly until the liquid has dissipated and serve! These make a great easy side dish or can be mixed into burritos or fajitas. If you’d like to spice them up a bit, sprinkle some red pepper or chili powder or cumin in them before simmering.
