Beans and rice are usually served separately in Mexico, but, occasionally the two are combined in delicious casseroles. This is quick and easy.

This dish was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I think I just added too much chili powder. Next time I'll use less.

This dish was a great way to get my kids to eat their vegetables. They loved the cheese and didn't even notice the beans.

This casserole was a little too cheesy for my taste. I think I would prefer it with less cheese next time.

This dish was a little bland for my taste. I added some extra spices and it was much better.
