Black Beans with Rotel Tomatoes

You can either use canned black beans which have been rinsed and drained or cook dried beans as follows:

I cooked dried black beans which had been rinsed and picked through for little pebbles and removed those beans which weren't up to par, for about 4 hours in some chicken broth with a little diced garlic. About 30 minutes before serving, I mixed in a can of Rotel Tomatoes with Lime and Jalapenos. 

You can add the Rotel (your choice of flavor of course) to the drained canned black beans and top with a little shredded cheese and chopped cilantro.
