    | 1. Cook the rice according to the package directions. (I allowed 50 minutes of cooking time, which allows plenty of time to do the advance preparation of the vegetables.). | 2. Meanwhile, coat a large nonstick skillet with nonstick spray and warm over medium-high heat. | 3. Add the onion and garlic and cook, stirring, for 5 minutes, or until tender. | 4. Stir in the beans, tomato sauce, bell peppers (or capsicum), oregano, thyme, and hot pepper sauce. | 5. Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook, stirring occasionally, for 15 minutes, or until the flavors are blended. | 6. Serve the beans over the rice. | 7. Garnish with the chopped chives or scallions. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
