I found that Cumin was better than Chili powder, and I threw in some cilantro. Easy!
This simple recipe is my favorite on the entire site. It's a staple in my house in the summer, you can add chicken to it, or cooked shrimp. Delicious!
This is a great and easy side. The lime and green onions add just a little something extra that makes the beans better.
An absolute favorite for me as a side dish with anything grilled. Really simple and easy to prepare using simple ingredients, but so delicious! Also great with some grilled shrimp tossed in. I top it off with low-fat sour cream.
