Here's another Cuban dish I'd love to share with you all and LisaK 
It compliments a side of white rice along with any meat. Typically, black beans are made with a package of dry beans, boiled and soaked for an hour, sometimes you can use a ham bone for flavor, BUT most of us want something that’s quicker, so here’s my version.
Ingredients
Ingredients
1 can black beans
3 cloves of garlic, peeled and crushed (or use minced garlic)
A quarter of sweet onion, peeled and chopped
1 Half bell pepper, chopped
3-4 strips of bacon, chopped
3 teaspoons ground cumin
Small handful of chopped cilantro (cut off stems, and only use leaves)
Small handful of chopped parsley (cut off stems, and only use leaves)
1 teaspoon of Adobo powder (shown in picture)
salt and pepper to taste
In a medium sauce pan, add the chopped bacon bits and fry. Next, add the onion, pepper, and garlic, cook until onion is partially transparent.
Step 1
Next add in the can of black beans (include the water that comes in the can). Add in remaining ingredients & spices and leave on a low heat for 15 minutes.
Step 2
Add salt & pepper to taste.
Compliment with white rice!
Serves: 4

8YESS!!! GONE
9Woohoo it's gone!
10looks great... I'll be trying this. Thanks, Doc!!
11Design is your hubby Cuban too?
12Nope, He's Italian and German.
13I bet he loves your Cuban dishes!
but if he shares Italian dishes that's a pretty fair trade!
14He swears he's Cuban sometimes, but it might just be the Italian in him him (fiesty)! The BOY CAN cook too. I'll see if he can cook something soon for me, and I'll post it.
15Thank You!! Thank You!! Thank You!!! This looks yummy
I have meant to tell you last Friday I made the ropa
the old clothes haha. It was
really, really good. My neighbor stopped by and saw it so I gave her the recipe.
My ex-husbands sister-in-law is Cuban. So I used to get some really good food. That is the only thing I miss about being married to him
16My hubby would love this!
17Yummy! This looks sooo good. I am always trying to find recipes for beans. When we go out for mexican, my daughter always orders rice and beans, so I know she would love this dish.
18I love black beans. Am favoriting this right now.
19This is indeed delicious!!!! We eat it all teh time in DR. It is also good with the rice mixed in and it is called Moro
20A question to the cook! The adobo powder is virtually unexisting here, do you think I could replace it by anything? Because this looks delicious!
21I can't get Adobo in Finland either
22If we knew what it tasted like (sweet, sour, spicy,...) we could come up with some alternatives...
23Does this help any?
Puerto rican adobo powder
Categories: Herbs/spice Caribbean
Yield: 1 cup
6 tablespoon Kosher salt
2 tablespoon White pepper
2 tablespoon Cumin seeds
2 tablespoon Garlic powder
In Puerto Rico, adobo is a seasoned salt that is generously sprinkled on meats and seafood prior to grilling, sauteing, or frying. Supermarkets sell prepared blends that are loaded with MSG. Here's a homemade version that lends unexpected excitement to any dish. Combine the salt, peppercorns, and cumin seeds in a dry skillet and cook over medium heat until the spices are lightly toasted and fragrant, about 3 min. Transfer the mixture to a bowl to cool. Combine the roasted spice mixture and garlic powder in a spice mill and grind to a fine powder. Store in an airtight container; it will keep for several months. Note: Pan-roasting the spices isn't traditional, but it greatly enhances the flavor.

or...here's the Spanish version
Spanish adobo powder: Combine 1 tablespoon each garlic powder, ground
oregano, onion powder and salt with 1/2 teaspoon white pepper. Store in
airtight container. Makes about 1/4 cup.

35Heeeeyy girlies, I just got online! Adobo is a mixture of onion, garlic, salt, sometimes cumin, pepper (not spicy). You can substitute by adding these powders.
