Frijoles Negros (black beans)

Here's another Cuban dish I'd love to share with you all and LisaK ;)
It compliments a side of white rice along with any meat. Typically, black beans are made with a package of dry beans, boiled and soaked for an hour, sometimes you can use a ham bone for flavor, BUT most of us want something that’s quicker, so here’s my version.
Ingredients
Ingredients

1 can black beans
3 cloves of garlic, peeled and crushed (or use minced garlic)
A quarter of sweet onion, peeled and chopped

Small handful of chopped parsley (cut off stems, and only use leaves)
1 teaspoon of Adobo powder (shown in picture)

In a medium sauce pan, add the chopped bacon bits and fry. Next, add the onion, pepper, and garlic, cook until onion is partially transparent.
