VEGETARIAN BLACK BEAN CHILI MIX

 

3 cup black beans, sorted - put in jar or bag.

 

3 Tbsp. dehydrated onion

 

3 Tbsp. granulated garlic

 

1 tsp. crushed oregano

 

2 tsp. salt

 

1/4 to 1/2 tsp. cayenne pepper (do not omit)

 

Combine spices in a small bag.

 

1 1/2 cups white rice - put in a separate package.

 

Label:

 

Wash beans. Put in pot with seasonings. Add 1 Tbsp. olive oil and

 

cover beans with 2 " water. Bring to boil and simmer until very well

 

done (about 2 hours). Beans should be very soft. Add water as needed

 

to keep beans from sticking. There should be some liquid left on

 

beans when done. To cook rice, put 3 cup water and 1 tsp salt into a

 

pot and when it boils, add rice. Lower heat, cover and steam for 20

 

minutes. Serve about 1/2 cup rice in bowl, and put beans on the top.

 

Sprinkle with minced cilantro, finely chopped green onion, and a

 

squeeze of lime juice. This is very healthy. It has almost no fat,

 

and is mainly from the bottom of the food pyramid.
