Who doesn't love a recipe that is full of flavor but take under 25 minutes to make! I sure do! These Cuban Black Beans use canned beans and are perfect top with rice with a side of salsa and avocados! So good and such an easy recipe!

1 tbsp avocado oil

1 medium onion (diced)

3 garlic cloves (minced)

¼ cup red bell pepper (diced)

1 cup water

1 bay leaf

1 tsp salt

1 tsp black pepper

¼ tsp red chili powder

¼ tsp cumin powder

1 tbsp cilantro (chopped)

1 can black beans (no drained)

Heat oil in a medium sauce pan. Add the onions, garlic, and red bell pepper to the pot and saute for 5-6 minutes.

Add the spices, bay leaf, cilantro, red wine vinegar, and water. Bring to a light simmer and then add the canned black beans.

Simmer the black beans for about 10-15 minutes or until most of the liquid has evaporated. Serve with some rice on top!
