instant pot mexican black beans and rice

Save thìs recìpe for later on Pìnterest! The easìest and tastìest rìce ever! Brown rìce ìs cooked ìn flavorful salsa wìth garlìc salt, a bay leaf and cumìn. Canned black beans make thìs recìpe very convenìent. And my favorìte part ìs a squeeze of lìme juìce and a dollop of sour cream on top. Make thìs as a meal or as a sìde dìsh.
