Recipe Review

8th January 2012

Queezle_Sister from Salt Lake City, UT

Super easy. cans, spices, and rice - no chopping, no presoaking, but also nothing fresh ;-(

I volunteered to bring soup to an event at the high school, and my son selected this recipe (I think based on the word "easiest"). Cans of black beans and crushed tomatoes are mixed with rice, powdered onion, garlic, cumin, oregano. The recipe instructs to add chipotle, but my can was dented outwards, and had to be tossed. We doubled the recipe.

after sitting on low for six hours, the rice was cooked perfectly.

Apparently there were many many slow cookers lined up for the kids, ours came home with a bit left (don't know if that speaks to quality, or the "vegan" on my label). The bottom of the pot was very thick, and we served it as burrito filling - and for that, the kids loved it.

I was a bit horrified making something with cans, but in retrospect, it was appropriate for the audience.
