Easiest Costa Rican Rice & Beans image

This recipe was actually posted by TheMom51 in her reply to recipe #78747. I thought I'd post it as a searchable recipe. Her original comment was: Just thought I'd add my Costa Rican daughter-in-law's recipe. It uses the traditional Salsa Lizano (you can order it over the Internet) which is probably why Matoszinho didn't think this recipe was quite right Preparation time does not include time to cook the rice. If you need to cook your rice add an additional 15 minutes to the prep time.

This was really good! I used brown rice and it worked out well. I also added a little bit of cumin and chili powder. It was a great way to use up some leftover beans.

This was really good! I used black beans and it worked out well. The only thing I would change is to add a little more salt. Other than that, it was perfect.
