“WOW” was my teenage son’s reaction when I asked him to taste these black beans and rice so I could pack them for his school lunch. And all I could think was mission accomplished. He was going to have a really long day due to school, sports, and extracurriculars and I wanted to make sure he had healthy fuel to sustain him.
