For wait

Spicy Baked Rice:

1 medium chopped onion
1 small can chopped green chili peppers (or jalapenos if you prefer)
2 cloves garlic minced (or equivalent)
1 can beans-black or kidney, drained and rinsed
1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes and chilis-undrained (green or jalapeno, whichever you like)
1 cup frozen corn
1/2 cup tomato sauce
1/2 cup water (mix this with the tomato sauce)
2/3 cup long grain rice
Chili powder
Cumin
Salt
Pepper

Put about 1 tbsp of oil into a large saucepan, and cook onion, peppers and garlic until the onion is tender. Add in the beans, the undrained tomatoes, the tomato sauce/water mix the corn, rice and seasonings. Bring to a boil and transfer to a rectangular baking dish (about three quart dish)

Cover and bake in a 375 oven for about 45 minutes, or until the rice is cooked.

(Optional for meat eaters...toss a couple of pieces of chicken, no skin, on the top, seasoned with salt, pepper, garlic.)

It's yummy just in a dish, but you could also fill burritos with it.)

I'm assuming you meant to add rice to that to bring to a boil? *grin*

That looks delicious and something along the lines that my husband was looking for (he loves beans/rice dishes) so I may have to steal it!

Did I leave out the rice?

Yes. Add the rice, and bring the whole thing to a boil. Then bake it.

wait suggested adding boca crumbles to it as well, which would probably be very yummy.

Sounds yummy
