If you love beans and rice, you have to try this unique dish. I found a recipe for pumpkin vinaigrette and decided it would taste good with black beans. All the flavors blended so beautifully. I topped mine off with some chopped cilantro! This dish would be good hot or cold. I can't wait to have the leftovers, because I know the flavors will be even better after marinating longer together.Black Beans and Rice with Pumpkin Vinaigrette
