We love Taco Tuesday, but we can't have tacos every Tuesday

(well, I guess that could be debated!)

so we do try to stick with a mexican food theme Tuesday evenings.

Yesterday we had Beans & Rice with Chicken.

 

This can be served without the chicken, too.

But in our home, darling hubby likes his meat.

 

Start by cutting the chicken into chunks

then add to skillet coated in olive oil

and cook till done.

Then add about 4 Tablespoons of taco seasoning (homemade or store bought)

with about 1/4 cup of water.

 

 

Then add about 1/2 cup or more of black beans

(canned or cooked dried beans)...

 

 

Then add a couple of cups of pre-cooked brown rice,

adding water as needed (probably about 1/2 cup).

Let water absorb while stirring often.

 

Then add about 1/2 cup of salsa...

(you could also add corn!)

 

 

(I took some out for my younger children before I added the salsa)

Sprinkle with cheese, if desired.

 

We really enjoy this at our house!

And it's great with cornbread!
