Served this with rice topped with shredded cheese. I added a thai pepper for heat.I really like the refreshing taste of the lime in this dish. Thanks Sue for a great meal!

I halfed the serving to 3 and the proportions were perfect. Enjoyed over white rice. I used dried cilantro as that is all I had on hand. I have never used lime on black beans but enjoyed the "bite" it gave it. Thanks Sue L!

This turned out very nice. I made half a recipe to try it out, and cooked 1 lb dry black beans, to equal 15 oz canned beans. I wanted to try the beans mildly flavored this time, so used red bell peppers instead of chilies. I did notice that there is no salt in this recipe - perhaps the canned beans are seasoned - but I added salt to taste at the end. Thank you for a very enjoyable recipe.

Yummy!! Had to change the heat of it though because I have little guys. I put in diced green chilis instead of the jalepeno. Everyone loved it even my 2 and 3 year olds!! Thanks so much for the great and easy recipe!!

This was a recipe that uses ingredients that are readily available and it is fast and easy to prepare. The result is a deliciously flavorful side dish. My family enjoyed it and said it was a keeper! Thank you for sharing your recipe Sue!

Really great way to jazz up a plain old can of beans. Love the freshness of the lime too! Great recipe!

These are the PERFECT go to beans when you need a mexican side and don't have a ton of time...love, love, love the cumin/lime combo. I sprinkle shredded jack cheese over the top once done-i'm a cheesaholic. These are great...thx so much for posting!

These were the best black beans we had ever tasted! We made them exactly as written, except we used a little less jalapeno and did remove the seeds (there was still a perfect amount of heat for us). We served them with Mexican rice, pico de gallo, avocado and sauteed veggies, and they were the hit of the table. The spice proportions are perfect, and lime juice and cilantro are an excellent addition. Highly recommended!

This was great! I rinsed off my beans to get rid of some sodium and just added some water when I added the beans to the skillet. I left my jalepenos and onions a little larger. The cilantro along with the cumin gave a nice balance. I may be biased because I am addicted to cilantro. I ate this with some naan (Indian flat bread) that I get from the local Indian store.

Pretty good.. maybe needed some salt? I enjoyed the chunky onion and jalepeno. I think fresh tomato and sourcream would be good with this. : )
