Hi....
I made up these black beans and rice and took them to a party at our neighbor's home this weekend....they were delicious! I made up a 10-oz. package of yellow rice instead of the chicken broth/regular rice that is in the recipe....I am making it for dinner again tonight because we hardly got a chance to have any at the party!!
Enjoy!
