BEANS AND RICE DINNER

Beans and Rice Dinner image

On cold or rainy days, this comforting beans and rice dish really fills the tummy. Sometimes I switch up pinto beans for kidney beans or use white rice instead of brown. Add rolls and a green salad, and it's dinner! -Lorraine Caland, Shuniah, Ontario
