Mmm, yes, we make something like this all the time. Delicious as it is, or wrapped up as taquitos, fried into "quesadillas" without the queso (this works best if you mash the beans a bit), put into wraps, etc., etc. So good!

those handy frozen cubes

Wow, I've never heard of that! Cilantro is sort of the bane of my existence in a way, because when I buy it I almost never can use it up before it goes bad. I've tried the dried cilantro flakes and they're just awful. The best solution is to grow my own cilantro, but unfortunately that only works for a portion of the year. :)
