Beans and Rice

This is Anne's fabulous recipe for Beans and Rice. She used to make this in college and I would try to keep myself from eating the whole pan before she got any!
(She's unable to post for some reason, so i'm posting for her. Also, she was scheduled to have her baby yesterday....)

Sofrito:
2 onions, chopped
3 green peppers,chopped
bunch cilantro, chopped
2 cloves garlic, crushed

Make sofrito, then freeze 1/4 cup portions in Ziplock baggies.

In large frying pan, saute 1/4 c. sofrito in 2 T. hot oil
Add: 1/2 can tomato sauce
       1 can black beans (don't drain)
       3 c. cooked rice
       salt
       1 Sazon seasoning (available in Mexican foods sections of most grocery stores)

Can serve plain, or in burritos with salsa, lettuce, cheese, sour cream
