I've tried this recipe several times and I've never been disappointed. It's a great way to use up leftover rice and beans. I also like to add some chopped avocado or salsa to the top.

I tried this recipe and it was a bit too spicy for my taste. I think next time I'll use less chili powder.

This dish was okay. The flavors were a bit bland for my taste. I think it would have been better with some added spices.

I made this dish last night and it was a disaster. The rice was undercooked and the beans were mushy. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.
