A Favorite Recipe

For supper tonight I am making one of our favorite dishes. It's vegetarian, cheap, easy, very tasty and nutritious. If you omit the egg, it's vegan.

Robin's Beans and Rice--Serves 4-6

One and one-half cups cooked white or Jasmine rice

One can kidney beans or black beans, drained and rinsed

One can diced tomatoes

One egg, beaten

Hot sauce (Goya is a good brand)

Chili powder

In a large skillet, combine the rice, beans, diced tomatoes and egg. Stir frequently, over low-medium heat, about ten minutes until egg is cooked. You will see grainy bits of cooked egg through the dish and cooked egg on the bottom of the pan. Season with chili powder and hot sauce to taste.

Optional, add a diced red, orange or yellow bell pepper, top with shredded cheddar or Mexican cheese, or serve on a soft tortilla (wrap).
