Ingredients:

• 2 cups dry black beans, rinsed
• 2 cups coconut water
• 1 tbsp. l. coconut oil
• Juice of 1 lime
• 2 green onions (green part only), thinly sliced

Preparation:

Step 1
• Soak the beans overnight in cold water.
Step 2
• Drain the beans and transfer them to a large saucepan. Add 3 cups of cold water, coconut water, and 2 teaspoons of salt. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Cook for 2 minutes, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer until tender, 30-45 minutes (older beans will take longer to cook).
Step 3
• When the beans are tender, add coconut oil and lime juice, season with salt and pepper to taste. Transfer to a serving platter and garnish with green onions.
