Recipe

• 1 combine the first 4 ingredients. if using chicken bring to a boil and then lower the temp, cover and simmer for 15 minutes. bring back to a boil.
• 2 if using the hamburger, brown it first before adding the other 3 ingredients. once added bring to a boil, no need to simmer.
• 3 from there the rest is the same for both versions.
• 4 add the instant rice, black beans, and corn. mix together well. if i have any on hand i also usually add green onions.
• 5 adjust heat to low, cover with desired amount of shredded cheese. i use about 2 cups but that is a lot. we love cheese. i think originally it called for 1 cup.
• 6 once cheese is added cover and let cook on low for 5-10 minutes or until the rice is done.
• 7 serve and enjoy. this usually only takes about 30 minutes total. quick and easy.
