This is a GREAT recipe for a school/sports night, it can be made ahead of time and popped in the oven 15 minutes before you want to eat, or you can make it in 30 minutes or so just before you have to run out the door to your next activity. And as an added bonus, KIDS LOVE IT!! My kids gobbled it up and ask for more! I think it would be great with chicken too!

Black Beans, Trish Style
1 can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 small can chopped green chilies
splash of lime juice
1 roma tomato chopped
fresh cilantro
Heat black beans, green chilies & lime juice in a saucepan. Just before serving throw in the tomato and fresh cilantro, stir and serve. YUM-O! I love black beans like this - my kids not so much, I mean they ate their 2 bite minimum, but they prefer it when I refry them.
