I would put in a can of Rotel or a cup or so of salsa. Then add some whole kernel corn, some fresh cilantro, and a little cumin. If you want meat in it, you could add some cooked shredded chicken. I make a quick version of this with canned black beans.

Here's a recipe that I've made a few times. It's been passed around to several families so it's been a hit!

 

15.5 oz Goya Black Beans or 1-2 Packages dried black beans

1 Extra large onion

 Handful of Parsley and Cilantro

6 Garlic Cloves (or more if you prefer)

3 Tbs. Sherry

1 Pkg of Sazon (look in the mexican aisle in the market)

1.5 Tbs Tomato paste

5 Shakes of hot sauce

2-3 Tbs Pepperocini juice

3 Pepperocini's, chopped

1.5 Tbs Balsamic Vinegar

1 Tsp Sugar

1/4 Tsp Salt, Pepper and Red Pepper Flakes

1 Lime

*Olive oil for the sautee*

 

Saute onion in olive oil

Add herbs and garlic, cook until almost soft
