This is an easy recipe that can be used as a dip, burrito filling, or entree. It has everything you need for filling and healthy meal, it's just your choice how you eat it. :) I hope you enjoy it cause I just love it. Ingredients:
1 (16 ounce) bag dried black beans |
1 (16 ounce) bag brown rice |
1 red onion (chopped) |
3 jalapeno peppers (seeded and chopped) |
7 cups water |
1/4 cup lime juice (or lemon) |
1 cup cilantro (chopped) |
2 (8 ounce) cans diced tomatoes with green chilies |
1 (16 ounce) bag frozen corn |
1 (16 ounce) bag four-cheese mexican blend cheese |
Directions:
1. Rinse and sort beans. Mix beans, rice, onion, jalapenos, and water into crock-pot. Cook on low for 8.5 hours.
2. Add lime juice, cilantro, tomatoes, corn, and cheese. At this time also add 1/3 cup of desired cajun seasoning (Tony's, Emeril's, Luzianne, etc.). I use Lusianne, because it has less sodium. Continue cooking for another 30 minutes.
3. Serve warm by itself or, wrapped in a flour tortilla like a burrito, or serve with tortilla chips like a dip.
4. Add a dab of sour cream and/or guacamole for color, texture, and taste.
