1 Can Black Beans, Undrained 1/4 Teaspoon Cumin
1 Teaspoon Garlic, Minced 1/4 Teaspoon Chili Powder
1/2 Teaspoon Smoked Paprika 1/4 Teaspoon Oregano
1/2 Teaspoon Dried Mustard

Add all ingredients to saucepan and simmer for 20 to 25 minutes. Serve hot.

"I often like to add black beans to my tacos or enchiladas.  While they are fine plain, having them seasoned makes for a much better meal.  The quick version uses items in stock at all times in my kitchen, but depending on what you have in stock, you can add all or some of the enhanced recipe ingredients.
