10-minute Beans


olive oil
a small onion
1/2 bell pepper (any colour, and/or use a hot variety)
a carrot
chili powder
cumin powder
a small tomato
a clove of garlic
1/2 can of kidney beans
cilantro
1/2 an avocado (or more)

In a frying pan, heat a small amount of oil over medium-high heat.  Chop up the onion and add to the pan.  Do the same with the pepper(s), carrot, and anything else you wish to add.  Shake in some chili and cumin powders to taste and stir.  Mash the garlic then chop it with the tomato.  Add these to the pan as well, then stir.  Rinse and drain the beans, then dump them into the mixture.  Add a dash of tequila, or lime juice, or orange juice, or all three.  Scrape up any brown bits.  Chop up the cilantro and dice the avocado.  Turn off the heat, toss in these last two ingredients and serve.
