I just love this dish so much! It is very easy to make and it doesn’t take a lot of time. Because I make my meals for one person, this one is ideal for meal prep. I usually eat one serving right away, put one in the fridge for the next day and four in the freezer. You know, it tastes even better after one day in the fridge – or coming out of the freezer.
When you don’t like your dish to be spicy, you can leave out the jalapeños. It tastes good with or without. The more experienced kitchen princess – or prince – could use real, soaked beans.
People who can’t go without meat, can always add chicken or minced meat. This dish could be made to fit everybody’s taste.
