Rice Beans

Easy Spicy Beans and Rice

2 C. Brown rice (uncooked), or 4 C. cooked
2 15-oz cans of any type of beans
1/2 C. salsa
1 clove garlic, minced (or 1 tsp. minced garlic-in-a-jar)
1/2 large red onion, chopped
2 tsp cumin
2 C tomato (ie spagetti) sauce
10 dashes tabasco sauce

If using uncooked rice, start it cooking.

Rinse canned beans thoroughly in a colander. In a large nonstick frying
pan add salsa, garlic, onions, and cumin. Saute until onions are limp.
Add tomato sauce and tabasco sauce, and simmer.

If using cooked rice, reheat it now.

Five minutes before the rice is ready, stir the beans in gently and
simmer until well heated.

Serve beans over rice.
