EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Keep with the Southwest-flavor theme by serving this meatless skillet meal with warmed tortillas or tortilla chips and sliced avocados and tomatoes.

For a heartier, meatier meal, you can add cooked ground beef or turkey with the beans.

Chili beans give a boost of flavor to this recipe, so be sure not to drain. The canned pinto beans are in a sauce of tomato paste, chili powder and other spices.

Way too salty even though I thoroughly rinsed the black beans and used frozen corn. But I liked the flavor so will try again with low sodium or soaked beans. But I think it's the chili beans that are doing this recipe in for me.
