I’m not sure why it is… but I stink at making black beans. Really. I can never seem to get the seasoning combo just right. Or I do and I forgot to measure so I can’t recreate it. My combination of seasonings always seems to result in black beans that are simply underwhelming. That is until I discovered roasted salsa. Since I started making roasted salsa last month, it has become a weekend staple. I have been whipping up batches left and right and putting it in and on everything! The roasted goodness of the veggies is great with a can of black beans! I’ve tried using regular jarred salsa and the results were just not the same. The roasted salsa really did make a difference.
Soo easy to whip up and a delicious side dish! I’m not kidding you… its ridiculously easy that its almost a joke that I’m sharing it with you. But maybe there are some others out there who have an inability to make tasty black beans, so this is for you too

These are a great side dish for Creamy Green Chile Enchiladas or Green Chile Chicken Enchiladas.
