  • 1 cup long-grain parboiled rice
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • 1 cup chopped onion
  • 1 3/4 cups (1/4-inch) cubed peeled butternut squash
  • 1 teaspoon chopped fresh or1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 (15-ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
