Another versatile meal…feel free to add any veggies you choose.

I love this combo of peppers and onions with the black beans.  Or if you’re craving meat, add steak or chicken.

This is a great meal to have when the peppers are on sale 10 for $10.  Buy 6 peppers in assorted orange, yellow and red colors and make Roasted Red Pepper soup for dinner another night.  Save a grocery trip and money!

Happy Cooking!

Ingredients:

8  flour tortillas (we use Tortillas Fresca,

    uncooked tortillas with few ingredients –

    they taste like homemade!)

1 can black beans (15 oz), undrained

1 can pinto beans (15 oz), undrained

• If using uncooked tortillas, cook following package directions.
• Make the spanish rice.
• Meanwhile heat olive oil in a med. saucepan and saute onions and peppers until onions are translucent and peppers begin to soften.
