🫘 RECIPE: One Pan Mexican-Style Rice, Beans & Veggie Bake
Ingredients:
1.5 Cups Rice, rinsed
3 Cups (1 28 oz can) Crushed Tomatoes
1.5 Cups (1 14 oz can) Cooked Beans - Black, Pinto, Anasazi..
1 Cup Corn, fresh, canned, cooked, or frozen
1 oz packet of Vegan Taco Seasoning OR
*DIY Homemade Taco Seasoning*:
1 TBSP Chili Powder
1.5 TBSP Ground Cumin
1 tsp each Salt & ground Black Pepper
1/2 tsp each Garlic Powder and Smoked Paprika
1/4 tsp Crushed Red Pepper Flakes
1 zucchini, grated
1/2 a cabbage, grated
1/2 a large (or 1 medium) white or yellow onion, diced
2 cups of water or veggie broth
Optional - any toppings you like: jalapenos, black olive, fresh tomato, cilantro, radishes, avocado, AND
*DIY Homemade Sunflower Sour Cream*:
1.5 Cups raw Sunflower seeds, soaked in boiling water for 10 min and drained
1 Cup Unsweetened Plant-based Yogurt
2 TBSP Lemon Juice
1 TBSP Apple Cider Vinegar
1/2 tsp Salt
Directions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350F
2. To a 9x13 pan, add the rice, tomatoes, beans, corn and seasonings, followed by the grated veggies, onion and water
3. Mix all together in the pan, use spatula to make surface even
4. Cover with baking paper and tinfoil
IMPORTANT - make sure the baking paper doesn't go over the sides of the pan - we want the foil to form a seal so that the rice cooks, just like it would in a pot on the stove.
5. Bake for around 45 min, maybe longer depending on rice. If not cooked you may need to add a little more water and bake longer
6. Meanwhile, prepare your optional toppings. For *DIY Homemade Sunflower Sour Cream*: add everything to.high speed blender and blend until smooth, adding a little warm water as needed to thin
7. When rice is thoroughly cooked, plate it up, add your toppings
ENJOY!
