I just kinda whipped this up in the kitchen the other day - really simple and nice and local/lowfat!

SERVES 8 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Cook the rice according to package instructions.
  2. 2
    When done, allow to sit and begin sauteeing the onion and pepper in some garlic and cooking spray.
  3. 3
    I used PAM, but if you want to go with butter, go right ahead!
  4. 4
    Cook the onion and pepper until done, add the black beans, corn and salsa, cook for about 2 minutes or so.
  5. 5
    Add the cumin for flavoring (salt and pepper to your liking, as well!) and cook for 1 minute.
  6. 6
    Finally, add the cooked rice and stir everything together.
  7. 7
    I eat this on tortillas, by itself, on salads, on crackers-- possibilities are endless!
  8. 8
    If bland, add some more cumin or salsa when you eat.

This was great! The only changes I made was that I fried my rice first the way my SIL taught me to do and I didn't add corn just because I'm out. I also added a 1/2 can of tomatoes and didn't add green pepper just because we don't like it. This was so easy and so tasty and will make a great side to my chicken enchilada pie that I made at the same time. Thanks!

    This was really easy to put together. I did use brown rice instead of white, and frozen veggies instead of canned. All in all a healthy and tasty meal. Not very much zip, and a little more rice then I wanted. Next time I'll cut the rice down a smidge and add more salsa. Thanks!
