Karen's Black Beans Ole!


These are approximate because I never measure, you do not need to for this recipe. This is great as a side dish for quesadillas, and also over brown rice or as the inner part of a burrito.

1 can Goya Black Beans, rinsed and drained
1tsp EVOO
1tsp garlic paste (or one clove garlic, minced)
1/2 C Dry sherry
juice and zest of 1 lime
1 jalepeno, sliced thinly--seeds and all! I likey spicy
cilantro, fresh, chopped (about 3 T)
1 heaping Tbsp of Queso sauce (I like the one from Costco)

Saute garlic in EVOO for about a minute and add drained beans, sherry, lime zest and juice, and Jalepeno and bring to a boil. Simmer for about 10 minutes or until Jalepeno is cooked and very little liquid remains. At this point, add cilantro and cook 1 minute. Take off the heat and Mash about 1/2 of bean mixture. Stir in queso sauce. Enjoy!
