Here is a recipe for those nights you don’t have much time to cook. This black beans with peppers and cumin recipe will come together in 20-25 minutes. Using canned black beans will speed up the cooking. Red bell peppers are the star of the recipe adding a visually appealing accent to the dish. Curry in addition to cumin will add another layer to the flavors.
This is a hearty and flavorful dish for the vegetarians in your family. This recipe reheats well the next few days. I like this dish for my busy nights where I might not have time in the morning to make lunch.
