Oh. My. God. It might not look like much, but this guy is the highest level of comfort food known to humans. We discovered gallo pinto (direct translation "speckled/spotted hen") in Nicaragua, where they sold it everywhere for breakfast, lunch and dinner. It's greasy, it's fantastic with hash browns or faux meat sides or veggies or... well, anything. It's a great side, and it's also great in a giant bowl on its own.
And it's cheap. And pretty easy. There is NO DOWNSIDE. Aside from the fact that it's pretty bloody unhealthy, but you know, you can't win em all!
