This is one of the quick recipes that you could use to clean your leftovers and whatever is there in the fridge. Fried rice is a staple in Asian cuisine and I like to think it is a complete meal. It has carbs, vegetables, and proteins with enough salt to flavor the dish. The extra dose of proteins from the black beans makes this dish a super dish and takes away the guilt of carbs, if ever found!

Serve it along with meat curries, Asian flavored grilled meats, or on it’s own for lunch, dinner or even breakfast!

Black Bean Broccoli Fried Rice
