black bean sauce

[Guest guest]

This recipe was posted before -- it was mentioned again in the book by Barnard

that I'm reading -- turn off the fat genes.

 

I think this will appeal to some of you who mention wanting quick tasty meals

for one person.

 

it's good on sweet potato ;-)

It's best if the black beans aren't too soft (mushy.) garnish with chopped bell

peppers
