    For an easy recipe my sister taught me I cook fish (I like tilapia but any white fish works or you can do shrimp) in a pan covered with a can of black beans, a can of diced tomatos with chilis, and a small can of corn. Super fast super easy. You can add cayenne or hot sauce if you like it spicy and if you have time adding fresh bell peppers and purple onion is awesome. (I like to cut up a lot at once and toss them in the freezer in little bags for using later.)

    Black beans, jalapeno, diced tomato, onion, cilantro, avacado and some lime juice... Black bean salsa :)

    Goes great with tacos and enchiladas. Eggs in the morning. My ex would mash it up a bit and use as a dip with chips...

    That sounds AMAZING!
