This has been a go to recipe for our family since the 2001 cookbook that it appeared in.

I MADE THIS RECIPE FOR DINNER TONIGHT. THE TASTE WAS DELICIOUS BUT IT WAS A LITTLE THIN. THE RECIPE DIDN'T SAY TO LET IT STAND FOR 5 OR 10 MIN BUT BY THE TIME WE HAD EATEN SOME IT HAD STARTED TO SET UP. I ALSO THOUGHT THAT ANOTHER CUP OF RICE MIGHT HAVE HELPED TOO. BUT THE TASTE WAS DELICIOUS SO WILL DEFINITELY MAKE IT AGAIN.

I make this alongside burritos, tacos or fajitas. Great addition! The whole family loves it.

It was quick, easy and tasted great on a cold Winter's night! I used whole grain rice and low fat cheese.

This is a great recipe - I've made it a ton and everyone loves it! It's a great option for vegetarians. I make it with corn & serve with tortilla chips.

Didn't have black beans so I used pinto. It turned out fantastic!

Very easy and quick to make. I believe this would also be good as a burrito filling by substituting the black beans with refried beans. This is a recipe that I'll be making again.
