TEX MEX RICE AND BEANS WITH ZUCCHINI

Steps:

• Cook brown rice as per package instructions. Personally, I like to cook it 1 cup rice : 1.5 cups water ratio, and for 30 minutes. This way rice comes out al dente and fluffy. The secret is not to peek inside, do not open the lid. While rice is cooking, prepare other ingredients and start cooking about half way rice is done.
• Preheat large Dutch oven or soup pot on medium heat and swirl oil to coat. Add onion and garlic, and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add taco seasoning, cumin, coriander, salt and pepper, and cook for 30 seconds, stirring frequently.
• Add zucchini and cook for 3-5 minutes for al dente version or longer if you like your vegetables very soft. Add corn, black beans, diced tomatoes and fluffed with a fork previously cooked rice. Stir gently, turn off the heat and adjust seasoning and toppings to taste. Serve hot.

TEX-MEX LAZY TOMATO RICE

Steps:

• Rinse the rice in a colander until the water runs clear. Put the rice in a 5- to 10-cup rice cooker. Fill with water according to the manufacturer's instructions. Stir in the taco seasoning and 1 teaspoon salt. Add the beans in a small pile. Directly next to the beans, add the ground beef in a pile, then the red pepper, green pepper and corn, so each ingredient has its own section of the circle.
• Turn the tomato core-side down and make a deep X with a sharp knife across the bottom. Place the tomato in the center of the rice cooker with the X facing up. Close the rice cooker and follow the manufacturer's directions to set to regular white rice.
• When the cook cycle is complete, carefully open the rice cooker and stir together the ingredients. Squeeze in the lime juice and mix. Taste and adjust the seasoning with more salt if necessary. Sprinkle with the Cheddar, if desired. Serve with sour cream and avocado if using.
