Southwest Black Beans and Rice
Steven & Kristen W.
Yield: 6 servings
2 c. rice
*Start the rice cooking, then combine the following ingredients in a
pot:
1 can black beans (I like the no salt added kind for this)
1 can petite diced tomatoes (no salt added)
1 can whole kernel corn (no salt added)
1 can green chilies
*You can add cooked ground beef/turkey, or seasoned chicken to this
mixture, or go meatless
Season to taste:
Onion powder (1 tsp)
Cumin (about ½ - 1 tsp)
Chili Powder (about 2-3 tsp)
Oregano (about ½ tsp)
Let bean mixture simmer until rice is done.
Serve bean mixture over rice with Monterrey Jack or Pepper Jack cheese,
tortilla chips, etc.
