I am going to be making this all summer! I had it with some grilled chicken, and the next morning with scrambled eggs and some aged cheddar. It would also be great over a salad. The only change I made was to use canned tomatoes, and only because the ones at the store didn't look so nice. Thanks - very refreshing!

Barb, This was Oh So Goooood. it Tasted Somewhat like the Southwestern Rice dish at Taco Belle That I love so much.I won't buy fresh tomatoes at the store during the winter,so I drained a can of Diced tomatoes with green chilies and used that,so then I eliminated the Jalapeno,because the tomatoes are already HOT.I also cooked a couple of diced up chicken breasts with some cumin.I put the chicken on top after all else was assembled.There was a little left over after my husband got finished,(he had 2 big helpings)and he said "Don't throw that out I'll have some more later" I really think he too liked it.Ha Thanks for a GREAT recipe.

This is fantastic! I didn't realize at first that this is a cold topping over hot rice - in my haste I just assumed it was all hot. I hesitated, but absolutely love it. I mixed the leftovers together and will have a Mexican rice salad for lunch tomorrow. The changes I made were to use a drained can of petite diced tomatoes, 1 cup of frozen corn instead of the canned, and threw some chopped avocado on top. A new staple in our house, especially for summer. Thanks Barb!

This was a great rice dish. I use one of the other reviewer's suggestion and added 1 teaspoon of cumin. Yummy flavor and very colorful. I served as a side dish with chicken quesadillas. Very good. Thanks.

Very tasty - another 5*. Pretty versatile too - I didn't have black beans so I used pinto beans and it was great. I also barbecued some fresh corn which gave it a grilled flavor.

I just made this and it was great! I also used canned tomatoes with chilies since I didn't have fresh. I actually made this to use in enchiladas. Just put some rice and bean mixture in a tortilla, add a sprinkle of cheddar cheese, roll up & place in pan, and then top with some enchilada sauce. Bake until hot (I baked at 350 for about 20 minutes). These were awesome! Thanks for the recipe!

This is a wonderful dish. I served it with chips to friends and they thought it was great also. I mixed some in eggs to scramble this morning and we have a new favorite egg dish. I highly recommend this recipe.

Yummm. I used 4 cups of cooked rice, and that worked out perfectly...omitted the red onion because I didn't have it, and used a can of diced tomatoes with chilis instead of the fresh tomatoes/jalapeno pepper. I'll definitely make this again

Made the entire recipe as written, with fresh corn, and plan to use the leftovers on a Tex-Mex "pizza" tomorrow night. Wouldn't change a thing.
