Island Style Rice and Beans image

I found this on a OAMC website, which credits Healthy Meals in Minutes for this recipe. This was pretty easy, and nummy. This could also probably be made in a rice cooker (especially after thawing a frozen batch). I did the stovetop cooking for my two batches separately, since I was baking one batch for dinner and freezing the second. This worked out well for me.

This recipe was a bit too spicy for my taste. I think I'll use less chili powder next time. Otherwise, it was a good recipe.

This recipe was a little too bland for my taste. I think it needed more salt and pepper. Also, the rice was a little mushy. I'll try it again with some adjustments.

The rice and beans turned out great! I followed the recipe exactly, and it was easy to make. The only thing I would change is to add a little more spice. Next time, I'll add a diced jalapeƱo or two.
