Brazilian Pork & Black Bean Stew image

During high school, I spent a year in Brazil and fell in love with the culture and food. One of my favorite dishes was feijoada, a chili/stew served over white rice. I introduced this easy recipe to my family, and it has become one of our favorite comfort foods. -Andrea Romanczyk, Magna, Utah
