						Directions:
						Prepare white or brown rice according to package directions.  
Meanwhile, heat olive oil in large, deep skillet or Dutch oven on medium-high heat.    Add garlic, brown sugar (depending on how sweet you like beans), cumin, dried oregano and pinch of dried red chili flakes;  cook 2 minutes, stirring frequently.  Stir in black beans and cook 4-5 minutes;  stir in parsley and cilantro;  set aside.    
Prepare salsa by combining corn kernels, jalapeno, fresh lime juice, red onion, fresh cilantro, plus salt and pepper to taste;  stir to combine.  Divide cooked rice among 6 bowls or plates.  Top each with black beans.  Spoon corn salsa on top.    Garnish with lime wedges.
