This is a great base recipe - I substituted ground beef and black beans. Only thing I would suggest is it needs a bit more spice - perhaps more chili powder.

I love it! I've made this recipe a couple of times, but to speed up the process a bit, I do it all in a large pan on the stovetop and boil the rice separately. It seems to become tastier the longer it "rests" after cooking.

Rice did not cook in 55 min at 375. Instructions need editing. I will spice it up and add taco seasoning.
