Chipotle Seasoned Black Beans & Corn

This recipe is as simple as open a couple cans and heat them in a pot. You can even sub some garlic and onion powder (1/2 tsp each) for the fresh garlic and onion to skip the chopping if you like.

Ingredients

• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 1 can black beans, drained & rinsed
• 1 can corn, drained
• 1 clove roughly chopped garlic (~1 tsp)
• 1/2 cup diced onion (red or white)
• 1/2 tsp salt

Directions

1. Heat a large saucepan over medium heat for 2 minutes. Add oil and heat another 1-2 minutes. Meanwhile, open the cans of beans and corn and drain. Rinse the beans in a strainer until the water runs clear.
2. Add garlic and onion to the hot pan and sauté until onion is translucent (Fast Tip: Skip onion and garlic and go to step 3 adding 1/2-1 tsp each of garlic and onion powder).
3. Stir in beans, corn, and salt and cook 2-3 minutes or until heated through stirring once or twice (be careful not to cook too long so beans don’t get mushy).

This can be done in advance and then reheated before adding to your burrito bowl.
