Ingredients

1 (15-ounce) can 50%-less-sodium black beans, drained
1 1/2 tablespoons finely chopped onion (I used red onion, but any variety is okay)
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
1 tablespoon finely chopped cilantro leaves
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
Sea salt and fresh ground black pepper, to taste

Directions

1

Add the beans to a medium microwave-safe bowl.
2

Cover the bowl with a microwave-safe plate.
3

Microwave the beans on high until they are heated through, about 1 minute.
4

Stir in the onion, lime juice, cilantro, and cumin until well combined.
5

Season with salt and pepper to taste.
6

Serve immediately, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.

Instead of microwaving the beans, heat them over medium heat in a small saucepan, stirring occasionally, until warmed, 5 to 7 minutes.
8

Then follow the remaining instructions, mixing them directly in the pan, removed from the heat.
