A few weeks ago, I was making fun of one of my coworkers for wanting to make dinner for his SO using canned, boxed and pre-marinated items. Well, tonight, I did just that for my own dinner...because I don't really need to impress myself, right?

1 garlic clove, sliced
1 large can of chopped tomatoes, drained
1 can black beans, rinsed, drained

4. Spoon the rice on the bottom of a bowl, top with black bean/tomato mixture, top with feta cheese and parsley.
5. Dinner is served.

I love this type of salad and make a lot of salads using any assortmant of canned beans, cheese and spices. I have a great recipe for a black bean and avocado salad. With everyone so busy these days I think that sometimes you only have time for the can!
This looks very tasty. Nothing wrong with fast food now and again especially when you make it like that. You have a lovely blog. Thank you for taking the time to comment on mine.
ooo yum!
