TEX-MEX RICE AND BEAN CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350ºF. Coat a 2-quart glass baking dish with cooking spray.
• In a large bowl, combine corn, chilies, beans, rice, 3/4 cup of cheese, sour cream, chili powder, salt and pepper; stir in scallions.
• Spoon mixture into prepared baking dish and bake for 30 minutes. Remove from oven and sprinkle with remaining 2 tablespoons of cheese. Return to oven and bake until cheese melts and casserole is slightly bubbly, about 10 minutes more. Let stand for 5 minutes to firm up before slicing into 6 pieces. Yields 1 piece per serving.

HEALTHY MEXICAN CAULIFLOWER RICE AND BEANS

Steps:

• If you are using a bag of already prepared riced cauliflower, skip this first step. Otherwise, wash and dry the cauliflower. Remove core and coarsely chop into florets. Blot with paper towels to completely dry. Place half of the cauliflower in a food processor and pulse until the cauliflower is small and has the texture of rice or couscous. Be sure to not over process or it will get mushy. Add to a large bowl. Repeat processing with remaining cauliflower. Or, using the largest holes on a box cheese grater, grate each cauliflower floret into small pieces, similar to the size of a grain of rice. Set aside.
• Coat a large, nonstick pan with cooking spray. Add olive oil and heat over medium-high heat. Stir in cauliflower rice, onions, red bell pepper, and garlic. Stir-fry for 3 minutes. Stir most of the time. Mix in black beans, tomatoes, corn, cumin, chili powder, a little black pepper, and ½ cup water or vegetable broth. Mix together until well blended. Bring to a boil. Lower heat and simmer for several more minutes. If too dry add a few more tablespoons of water. Add cilantro and mix well.
