directions

  • In a skillet, cook onion, green pepper and celery in butter until onion is tender.
  • Blend in rice, tomatoes, beans, seasonings and Worcestershire sauce.
  • Cook slowly, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes.
  • Turn mixture into a greased casserole.
  • Bake at 350°F for 15 minutes.
  • **Sometimes I like to melt a little Monterey Jack or cheddar cheese on top during the last 5 minutes of cooking.
  • Also, if my daughter isn't eating with us, I'll use Rotel instead of the tomatoes. I've even been known to add a dash or two of hot sauce!
  • If you don't like black beans, use pinto beans or chili beans. The choice is yours.
  • Of course meat eaters can add browned ground beef or chicken.
  • Also, to make this a really easy meal I sometimes cook it on the stove in my large cast iron skillet and just pop it in the oven in that! Now that truly is a one-pot meal!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I LOVE to cook and eat and read cookbooks. My kitchen really does overfloweth with them and of course this has quickly become my favorite cooking site! I live with my husband in a small town in eastern Connecticut. We are both retired. My children are all grown and have families of their own now. Our 3 grandchildren and 1 great-granddaughter all live in Florida and it goes without saying that we miss them very much, so when my husband retired last year we celebrated by buying a small RV! We so enjoyed driving it to Florida to spend the holidays with the little ones. Although COVID has prevented us from repeating the trip this year, I am enjoying learning new recipes to make in our RV for next year. I think the Instant Pot and the Crock Pot will be my new best friends while traveling!
