Iberia Arroz Con Frijoles Bundle 8 oz
A weeknight shortcut bundle from Iberia built around the most fundamental plate in Cuban cooking: rice and beans, ready in minutes without sacrificing the flavor profile of a slow-cooked pot.
The bundle pairs Iberia's pre-seasoned rice with ready-to-heat beans in 8 oz portions. Both components are shelf-stable, microwaveable, and finish on the stovetop if you want to crisp the rice at the bottom. Vegetarian and vegan across the bundle.
What You Can Make: moros y cristianos by combining the black beans with white rice, congrí using the red beans, frijoles negros served alongside white rice with a drizzle of olive oil, or a quick lunch plate with tostones and a fried egg on top.
Perfect For: weeknight cooking, college students stocking a first apartment, care packages to family members short on prep time, housewarming gifts for someone learning Cuban basics, and diaspora pantry restocking when you want the plate without the three-hour soak.
Cultural Context: Rice and beans is the load-bearing wall of the Cuban table. Every household has its version, and every cook eventually develops opinions about whether the beans should be soupy or thick, whether the rice gets cooked with the beans or separately. This bundle gives you the components to recreate either approach on a Tuesday night when you don't have the bandwidth to start from dried beans.
Pairs With: picadillo, ropa vieja, pernil, maduros, or a simple bistec de palomilla with onions.
Ships nationwide to Cuban-American households looking to keep the staple plate within reach on the busiest weeknights.
