This was GREAT and if I could give it more stars, I would! I had to use pink beans too, as I had only one can of the black, and I substituted a poblano chile for the jalapeno. I also didn't add the bulgur wheat, because I didn't have any, and I thought that might be to thicken it, so I did drain the tomatoes before I added them. I may double this recipe the next time I make it, because I didn't have enough left over!! I loved it!
