1
Cook the Rice
In a medium pot, add 1 cup of white rice and 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes or until the rice is tender and the water is absorbed. Fluff with a fork and set aside.
2
Prepare the Black Beans
In a small saucepan, heat 1 cup of black beans over medium heat until warmed through. If using canned beans, drain and rinse before heating. Set aside.

Sauté Onions
In a skillet over medium heat, add a small amount of oil and sauté the diced onion until translucent, about 5 minutes. Set aside.

Chop Cilantro
Wash and chop the cilantro finely. Set aside for garnish.
