Had our Latino friends as house guests on Labor Day weekend. The amount of food we cooked was crazy. Had leftovers for several days. My friend's husband is from Puerto Rico and really loves my bean recipe.

Cuban Black Beans
2 tablespoons olive oil
3/4 cup diced red pepper
3/4 cup chopped sweet onion (I use a whole cup of onions and peppers)
1 tablespoon minced garlic
2 teaspoons dried oregano
2 cans black beans, drained and rinsed
1/2 cup chicken broth (or beef)
1 tablespoon cider vinegar (I add a splash more)
Salt to taste

Saute onions and pepper in oil until soft. Add garlic, broth and 2/3 cup (or so) beans and mash with potato masher. Add remaining beans, oregano and vinegar. Simmer until mixture thickens and is fully warmed.

That looks good. I always want black beans in nachos, frijoles refritos, or burritos; and Goya makes a pretty good canned black bean soup.
