The aroma that fills your kitchen while cooking this Cuban rice dish will make you want to pump up the salsa music and grab a mojito!

Rice and black beans cook together in this flavorful dish, which gives the rice it's black color. In addition it's cooked with peppers, onions, garlic, cumin and bay leaf. Not only is the dish delicious, it's also high in fiber, protein, anti-oxidants, it's low fat, vegan, and gluten-free. Win win!!

This is very filling thanks to the beans. You cans enjoy this as a vegetarian main dish with a salad, or great as a side dish with steak, chicken or pork. Try this with Chicken Sabroso or Slow Cooked Pernil, you won't be sorry!

I ate this with an avocado papaya salad (recipe coming) and I was thoroughly satisfied, I didn't miss the meat!
