Steak, beans and salvation

This one was born of necessity rather than desire.  Steph and I realised we had basically no food items remaining except rump steak, a tin of kidney beans, an ear of corn and a red capsicum.  We had some bread, rice and pasta, plus one lime and a bunch of spices, etc, but there didn't appear to be too much we could do.  Things looked pretty dire, so I started scouring internet recipe websites for something that fit our ingredients list, and found this: http://www.goodhousekeeping.com/recipefinder/cuban-steak-beans-recipe-ghk0112.

Steak, corn, beans, capsicum, even the lime.  Everything we needed!  Genius! Thankyou, internet machine! You're my hero!

We modified the recipe a bit - no orange, mostly, but it turned out to be an interesting mix.  I probably wouldn't make this again, because I prefer other things with steak, but it got us out of a tight situation!
