Here is how you make Vegan Rice and Beans with Diced Tomatoes and Chick Peas:

This makes 6 servings, a little over a cup each!1) Boil water to make your brown rice.2) In a nice, big pan, chop up onion and mince garlic. Saut? in the pan with the olive oil until the onions are starting to brown just a little.3) Add rinsed black beans and chick peas and continue to saut? for a minute or two.4) Add can of diced tomatoes and let the entire pan simmer, adding the bay leaf and any other spices/herbs you might like (I like parsley, basil, and oregano - but that's up to you!)The longer you let it simmer, the yummier it gets. You can definitely eat it as soon as it's all heated up, but I'd recommend letting it simmer for at least half an hour.5) Add the cooked brown rice to the pan and stir. Ready to eat!
