More About This Recipe

  • Brown rice is one of our favorite foods but it can get boring eating it the same way. Good news is that rice is very versatile, making it the perfect ingredient for all of my kitchen creations. This time, I decided to make it Mexican style: with corn, beans, peppers and onion. Plus, I added one of my favorite ingredients: avocado! Colorful and tasty!
