Notes
Use cooked and cooled rice
Use black beans - homemade or canned. If using canned black beans, rinse and drain beans first. This helps remove the sauce that comes with canned beans.
Use fresh chopped cilantro. If you aren't a fan of cilantro, you could use fresh chopped parsley.
Use chopped green onions. You could also use chopped red onions, although they do have a stronger taste.
Use fresh squeezed lime juice. Store bought lime juice does not have the same taste as fresh squeezed.
Use approximately 2 tablespoons of lime juice which comes from 1 large lime.
If you wanted a bit of heat, add half of a finely chopped jalapeno!
