Black beans are my favorite. I make this quick dish often and it is on my list of "Fast Food" for days when I do not have much time but need something nutritious. A little advanced planning helps me avoid the urge to grab junk food when I am busy:

Cuban Style Black Beans

1 Can Black Beans, drained and rinsed
1/2 C Onion, chopped
2 Cloves Garlic, chopped
1/4 C Water
1 tsp olive oil
1/2 Lime

Optional: Add chopped lean ham, green bell peppers.
Optional Topping: Sour Cream.

Saute' the onions and garlic over medium heat for 2 minutes. Do not brown.
Add Beans and water. Cover and cook for 10 minutes on low heat.

When ready to serve, squeeze the juice of 1/2 a lime into the beans and stir.
Serve with rice.
