Santa Fe Black Beans, Revisited

So in 2014, the first thing I cooked was Santa Fe Black Beans.  Looking for a "Mexican Side" I found that recipe.  I decided to alter it, as my review was the beans were crunchy.  So I did.  Crazily, it was the first recipe I made for us in 2015.

It took me about 30 minutes to make, but that is because I am a really slow chopper (It took me the whole time D was making the chicken to make this).

We had with Chicken with Chorizo and Tomato Salsa.
