I really enjoyed this side dish, I think it tastes like chili, minus the sauce. I used goya beans and a low fat mexican cheese blend. The cheese definitly makes this work though, it wouldn't taste as good without it.

I really wanted to like this one so I tried it a couple of times. I made it exactly as stated and then also tried it with black beans. I also sampled it using chili powder once and taco seasoning once. The best outcome was with black beans and homemade taco seasoning but it was only OK - not fabulous. Still a worthwhile recipe to try if you are South Beaching it.

Beans, beans, the magical fruit... This made a great side dish to go along with chicken soft tacos. I just used a packet of taco seasoning mix which lended a nice spiced flavor. This was very easy to make so it is good for a busy week-night and the family loved it. That meets all my criteria for a 5-star recipe. Thanks Tara. I already have plans to make this again.
