CUBAN-STYLE MEATBALLS WITH BLACK BEANS AND RICE

Cuban-Style Meatballs with Black Beans and Rice image

Another keeper said my family. I found this in a cook book awhile back called Three Guys. The black beans and rice are the perfect compliment. You can also serve with plain white rice if you prefer. Add some bread on the side and you have an authentic Cuban dinner.
