Caribbean Style Beans and Rice
Today I am sharing a recipe from Whole Foods Market. This dish is one my favorite summer meals. If you are looking for a delicious meatless meal option, try this one. I promise you won't be disappointed!
Ingredients:
1 (13.5-ounce) can light coconut milk, divided
3/4 teaspoon fine sea salt, divided
1 cup long-grain white rice
1 tablespoon coconut oil
1 large yellow onion, chopped
1 red bell pepper, seeded and chopped
4 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 (15-ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leave

Modifications:
I use brown rice and two cans of beans to stretch it. It makes enough so that I get two full meals out of one cooking effort. A total win in my book!
I also top it with fresh cubed pineapple which really compliments the coconut, all spice, and cinnamon. Pair it with a side salad or steamed spinach.
