- 1 teaspoon of your favorite hot sauce (I use Chalula)
- ¼ teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 tablespoon light olive oil or butter

Instructions
- Heat oil or butter on medium heat in a saucepan.
- Add onion, garlic and cumin and sauté until fragrant and soft.
- Add black beans, hot sauce, chicken broth, and salt and bring to a rapid simmer.
- Reduce the heat so that the pot comes to a simmer, cover and let it cook for about 15 minutes or until the sauce thickens.
- Serve topped with fresh cilantro, onion, tomato, and maybe even cheese.
These are delicious in …. wraps:
