Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

8 oz Bow Ties or Elbow Macaroni
-OR other medium pasta

- (green and white parts)
1 1/2 ts Ground cumin

15 oz Canned black beans

1/4 ts Salt, or to taste

Prepare pasta according to package directions. While pasta is
cooking, heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add
scallions and cumin and cook for 2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir

Just before draining the pasta, measure 1/2 cup of the cooking water
into the black bean salsa. Drain the pasta, return it to the pot and
add the bean mixture. Cook over medium heat until the sauce is
boiling and thick enough to lightly coat the pasta. Remove the pot
from heat and gently stir in cherry tomatoes and cilantro. Serve
immediately.
