Beans and Rice Recipe

I saw this on Super Healthy Kids blog. This was really good. I had it for lunch today for leftovers. It is very filling. I made it with brown rice just because I love it. I added some green & red peppers and seasonings. I could eat this by itself, but with meat-eaters in my family I made it with steak, corn and some fruit. The kids would have been happier without tomatoes in it. -1 cup uncooked rice -2 cups water Cook in rice cooker -1 TBL Olive oil -1 onion chopped Saute in frying pan then add -1 can black beans (drained and rinsed) -1 can diced tomatoes (undrained) -1/2 tsp oregeno -1/2 tsp garlic powder Add cooked rice to bean/ tomato mixture and heat through.
