This bean recipe is for the person on the go! I traditionally prepare fresh beans from the bag and cook in the pressure cooker. These are from a can, but if done right, can offer you a very flavorful helping of beans to be deliciously eaten with rice! Read more Enjoy! See less

How to make it
- For sofrito
- Heat 1/2 cup canola oil on medium high. Add onion, garlic, green pepper, oregano, cumin and sautee for 5 minutes or until onion has softened.
- *******************
- In medium size sauce pan, heat beans on medium to high heat, adding water, bay leaf, salt and sugar. Cook sofrito. Add sofrito and slowly mix in. Add olive oil, vinegar and stir well. Keep bean on medium high for 20 minutes. Lower heat and let simmer for 5 more minutes. Serve on top of rice. It too salty for your taste, drop a peeled onion to soak up excess salt. If too vinegary, do the same thing. Let sit for another 10 minutes on medium. Serve over white rice. If you'd like to have it as as soup, add a bit more water or dry white cooking wine.
