Really quick and really good! The veggies stay crisp and the black beans are a firm bite with a nutty, creamy taste which is just great. I paired this with a roasted chipotle salsa and had a wonderful lunch. While this was a perfect week day lunch for one, it could easily be scaled up and made into a family dinner by adding a nice green salad. I can see adding some sliced grilled chicken for a heartier meal... hey, great recipe that is easily adaptable and is clearly a springboard for other meal ideas!

Very busy nanny/au pair, working for a very rich and snooty family, in a very large home, in a very snooty village. Just in case my employer comes here, please don't ask where I am from, or I'll be sacked like the last nanny was. ;-) I take care of 4 gorgeous, and darling kids. 3 girls and a boy. The boy is the youngest (and my favorite). They are great children, very, very active. (Hyper)
I love to cook. I guess that's a given, why else would I be here. Part of my job is also to prepare meals for the family. The more they like my food, the longer I get to stay. (just a little joke)
On my day off, I usually go out to the cinema or some dance clubs with the other au pairs in this town. That's about it I think.
