Talk about dorm food, this got me through a lot of studying. I usually serve it over wagon wheel pasta but it will probably go fine over any large pasta or even a chicken breast.
Ingredients:
1 teaspoon canola oil
1 onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, crushed and minced
1 (15 ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed
1 (15 ounce) can diced tomatoes and green chilies (with chilies and onions such as del monte's diced with zesty mild green chilies)
1 teaspoon ground red pepper (to taste)
monterey jack pepper cheese, grated (for garnish) (optional)
Directions:
1. Heat the oil over medium heat in a large frying pan.
2. Add the onion and garlic.
3. Stirring constantly, cook until softened. About 2 minutes.
4. Add black beans, tomatoes, and ground red pepper.
5. Simmer until sauce thickens and the ingredients are heated through, about 5-10 minutes.
6. Garnish servings with grated cheese if desired and serve over pasta.
