As written - this is also vegan. The recipe makes a lot. It freezes very well. If you eat dairy, garnishes such as sour cream and grated Parm cheese can be used. I love it served with a firm polenta wedge. Black beans can be subbed for the kidney beans. Recaito is an inexpensive, cilantro-based cooking sauce found in the Goya brand section of most grocery stores.
