Mexican Style Black Beans

If you are a fellow Mexican Food lover, you know that Cinco de Mayo is just around the corner! This is the perfect excuse to drink way too much tequila and eat some delicious Mexican food! Sadly, this year we cannot celebrate at our favorite Mexican restaurant, so I have been hard at work creating copy-cat recipes of some of my favorites!

The trick for this meal is NOT TO DRAIN THE BEANS! This is super important because the liquid in the can will reduce to create that restaurant style black bean.
