I was disappointed with this recipe. It sounded like it would be a good one, but when tried it, I gotta say.....it was just rather drab. I'd probly try it again if I could come up with some seasoning or something to jazz it up a bit, but I'm not sure what that would be.

We called it "pizza rice" and gave it to our three year old, and she ate it like it was going out of style! I made it with brown basmati rice and served it with a side or turnip greens. Awesome meal.

This was good! I made a couple of changes. I used diced tomatoes instead of stewed because I didn't have them. Then I added cumin, oregano, parsley, salt and pepper as the spices (no garlic). I cooked basmanti rice separately and then mixed it with the bean/tomato mixture before serving. Quick, tasty, and healthy!

I used diced tomatos with green chilis, 1/2 T of chopped garlic from Sams Club, 1/2 C of chopped celery, 1 carrot chopped. My wife thought it very bland and added Salsa to her bowl. I added hot sauce to mine. We will make it again. Loved reading all the comments.

I get Instant Uncle Ben's Brown Rice for which you microwave it for 90 seconds. I add a can of Italian diced tomatoes and a can of black beans. I sometimes add zucchini. I also add dried basil and oregano. It's delicious and quick and hearty!

i made this last night and put it into tortillas with some leftover chicken and topped it with green enchilada sauce and cheese and baked it- it tasted a lot like a mexican restaurant i used to go to in college! i did drain the beans, so i added a little bit of chicken broth to make sure the rice had enough to soak up. i will be making this again. this is a great basic recipe, and is so cheap and easy to make! thanks!

Good dish! I made several changes. I left out the tomatoes, as I don't like them. I also drained the beans, added chopped onions, fresh garlic, a pinch of chili powder. I put the mixture inside of a warm tortilla. I topped the tortilla with shredded pepper jack cheese and sour cream! It was yummy! I will make again.

I liked this recipe because it is high in fiber and protein and low in fat. I made a few changes. I used brown rice because it is healthier and cooked it seperately in low sodium, fat free chicken broth. To the broth I added cumin, tumeric, garlic powder and onion salt to flavor the rice as it cooked. In another pot, I sauteed sweet onion and garlic in 1 tbs of olive oil. After veggies became translucent, I added 1 (10 oz) can of tomatoes and green chilis and 1 (15oz) can of drained black beans and heated through. After rice was cooked, I tossed the bean/tomato mixture in with the brown rice and added a splash of lime juice. As condiments, you may want to add a dollop of low fat sour cream and/or low fat cheddar cheese. Very tasty and healthy meal. Deb, Georgia

This was a nice basic recipe. Very easy. I added chopped garlic, lots. I also only had one tomato in the house, which didn't really equal the right amount, so I added a little spaghetti sauce. We really enjoyed it with corn tortilla's and some sour cream.

I made this dish in my rice cooker and it came out very dry. I would not make this again. Thanks for the post though.

This recipe was perfect for what I needed. I did use a substitute for the stewed tomatoes. I used Hunt's diced tomatoes w/garlic,basil and oregano(which was all in one can). Then I put jamacian jerk shrimp on top and it was a hit!

This was OK. My husband liked it, but the rest of us in the house could do without the oregano. If I make it again I will use fresh garlic and a variety of spices.

Very good! Not the best, but for a pregnant lady craving black beans, this did the trick! I cooked rice separately, simmered for longer than 5 minutes (with cover on) and when I checked on it, it was too liquidy for what I wanted. So I added a second can of beans and simmered for about 15-20 minutes. Very satisfying!

I thought that this recipe was just ok. I used the exact measurements called for, but I could only really taste the stewed tomatoes.

Quick and Yummy! I adopted different suggestions and made my own delicious beans. I did not add rice but cooked rice separately and served the rice with the beans on the side. For the beans, I thoughly drained and rinsed the beans to get rid of the tin taste. I used 1/2 of a very large fresh vine-riped tomato, 1/4 of a green pepper, 1/2 onion, 1 clove minced garlic. All veggies were finely chopped except for tomatoes which were bigger. I used extra virgin olive oli to saute the garlic and onion. I then added green peppers and tomatoes with salt and fresh ground pepper. I added black beans a bit of water and chopped 1 slice of ham (omit if you're vegetarian). I used basil, oregano, paprika and cayenne for flavor. I ended up adding about 1/2 cup of water. add more water if you want. I let it simmer for about 5 min. in low heat. I'm eating it right now with a bowl of rice, some sliced avocado, cheese and fresh tomatoes. Oh my god, it tastes so good!!!
