Rice and beans are two easy ingredients to have on hand to make these ten best rice and bean recipes! Dinner or lunch, they can easily feed a family and are heavy on the protein!
Rice and beans might not seem like an exciting thing to eat although red beans and rice is one of my favorite southern dishes. Spanish rice is another so it really just depends on what you add to the rice and beans to kick them up a few notches. They’re also two ingredients that you can have as pantry staples, they last for a long time and are perfect fillers for other meals. My southwestern style tacos below are a great example, they would be amazing just with the meat, cheese and corn but by adding beans they become way more filling and packed with extra protein!
