Ingredients:

Serving

2/3 cup water
2/3 cup uncooked instant rice
1 tsp vegetable oil
cooking spray
1 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup chopped celery
1/2 cup diced green bell pepper
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 cup coarsely chopped tomato
1/8 tsp salt
1/4 tsp crushed red pepper
1/4 tsp ground cumin
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1 (15-oz) can black beans, drained
1/2 cup (2 oz) shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese

Directions:

Bring water to a boil in a saucepan, and stir in rice. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 5 minutes or until liquid is absorbed; set aside.
Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray over medium-high heat until hot. Add onion, celery, bell pepper, and garlic; sauté 5 minutes or until tender. Add chopped tomato, salt, crushed red pepper, and cumin, and sauté 2 minutes. Stir in cooked rice, cilantro, and black beans, and cook for 1 minute or until thoroughly heated. Divide the bean mixture evenly among 4 plates, and sprinkle with cheese.
