This dish was a lot of work for not a lot of payoff. I don't think I'll be making it again.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my rice came out undercooked. I had to cook it for an extra 10 minutes.

This recipe was a bit bland for my taste. I added some extra spices to give it more flavor.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my beans turned out mushy. Maybe I cooked them for too long?

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover rice. I also like to add some chopped cilantro to the finished dish.

This dish was easy to make and very affordable. I used canned black beans, which made it even quicker.

I'm not a huge fan of black beans, but this recipe changed my mind. The beans were so flavorful and creamy, and they paired perfectly with the rice.
