Easy & Healthy Recipe: Delicious Southern Rice & Beans

FTHs Southern Black Beans & Rice

Serves 4

Ingredients:

  • 1 15-oz can of black beans

  • 2 tsp cumin

Directions:

1) Prepare rice according to instructions on the package. While rice is cooking, chop up onion and mince garlic.

2) Heat oil on a skillet, then add onion and garlic. Sautee until onions are translucent and fragrant. Drain beans, then add the beans, cumin, and cayenne pepper to the skillet.

3) Cook beans until heated through. When rice is ready, add salt, then plate. Dish beans on top of rice and serve hot.

Recipe Notes:

  • No canned beans? No problem! You can use dried beans instead. Follow the package directions for soaking the beans ahead of time and cooking them. (I usually just soak my beans overnight the day before I plan to use them.) If you have a pressure cooker/Instant Pot, you can speed up that process and often eliminate the need to soak the beans. Also, although this recipe is written for black beans, you can make a substitution if you need to. Feel free to switch it up with pinto beans, kidney beans, or Great Northern beans.
  • As written, this black beans and rice recipe calls for brown rice which is both delicious and nutritious! However, you dont HAVE to use brown rice if you dont have any (or simply dont like it). Basically any type of rice will work for this recipewhite, instant, etc. Simply cook it according to package directions and add to the recipe as instructed.

  • Fresh out of fresh onions? Or fresh garlic? Or both? Dont worry! You can easily use garlic powder and onion powder in this recipe. If you have dehydrated onion, that works too. After all, at this time, its all about using what youve got.

How Eating This 3x A Week Can Help You Passively Peel Off The Pounds (Its Science!)…

You might not think of rice and beans as health foods… but did you know there are 7 grams of protein in 1/2 cup of beans, and nearly 5 grams of protein in 1 cup of rice?

Thats more than 25% of the daily recommended protein intake for the average woman! [1]

Which is great, because more protein means youll stay fuller longer and wont go foraging in your quarantine snack stash late at night. (Speaking from experience haha!)

And did you know eating more protein can help you lose weight faster even when you arent going to the gym, or dieting??

One recent study found adding this specific amount of protein to your diet can help you burn up to 441 MORE calories the next day.

Thats without doing anything different than you otherwise would other than eating a little bit more.

Um, where do I sign up?! 🙂

If youve been stress eating a lot more like I have this is GREAT news.

By adding this recipe to your regular dinner rotation a few times a week or simply by eating a few more protein-packed snacks many of which are pantry staples, like peanut butter (and cheese!!)…

you can boost your metabolism, and still lose weight and heres the delightful science that proves it (and how to do it):
