      This is my quick version of Puerto Rican style beans, which I make with either pink or red canned beans and diced potatoes, perfect when you need a quick side.

      My husbands FAVORITE meal is rice and beans. Especially when I serve them with breaded pork cutlets. I grew up eating rice and beans being part of a multi-cultural family. Brazilian Black Beans and Quick Cuban Black Beans are also on rotation in my house.,I spent many summers as a kid in PR, as I had family living there. Those were some of my favorite memories, I really loved the food and culture. Sadly its not easy to find Puerto Rican food as commonly by me as you would find Mexican food, and other Latin cuisines. Since Tommy is half Puerto Rican, I learned to make a lot of those dishes myself.,Dont get me wrong, I also make Puerto Rican beans from scratch with dry beans. But on nights I need a quick side dish, canned beans are the way to go. We serve it over white rice but its also great over brown rice as a side dish to chicken, pork chops or steak. You can easily make it a meatless main dish, served over rice with avocado (and some hot sauce!) and call it a meal.,Mexican Pinto Beans,Domincan Beans,Quick Cuban Black Beans,Brazilian Black Beans,Instant Pot Refried Beans
