Brown Coconut Rice with Black Beans and Cilantro


Next time you're making a side dish, make it something better than plain brown rice - make it coconut rice with black beans and cilantro. Hells yes.


Ingredients:
1 tsp I Can't Believe It's Not Butter Light
2 cups cooked brown rice
(I used the packet that you microwave in 90 seconds but I didn't microwave it)
1/2 cup lite coconut milk
1/4 cup water
1 tsp powdered ginger
1 garlic clove, crushed
dash salt
3 tbsp cilantro
1/2 lime juice

Directions:
In a medium sized heavy pot add butter and garlic. Cook for one minute and add coconut milk, rice, water, ginger, garlic, and salt. Cook over low heat. Cook till all liquid evaporates. Fluff with a fork and toss with cilantro and lime juice.
