  1. This looks delicious! I would gladly eat this for any meal of the day.
    2 Questions:
    How many “servings” does this make and, where are the black beans in the recipe? 🙂
    Do you used canned or dried beans? I prefer canned for convenience and rinse well.

    1. Haha, totally helps if I proof read my recipe… I’ve added in the black beans. Yes for convenience they are canned. Serving amounts really depend on what you are using it for. I get about 4 servings for a main or 6-8 as a side dish.

    1. Thanks Susannah!I’ve been trying to make more of them lately 🙂
