Spanish Rice and Beans

Very good

Very tasty. I used plant-based chicken stock and didn't have olives so I added crushed jalenpenos. Delish!

Absolutely delicious! Really tasty, fuming, and super low cost!

I used different rice then showed. I didn't put any olives in it because I don't like them. If I was going to make again, I will have to use a different kind of rice.

Made a huge portion, clear plates all round for four adults and enough for a few lunches too

I took a few liberties with this recipe but it was still really good. I skipped the beans because they don’t agree with me and added chicken on the side.

Next time I will cut the paprika and make sure to add the cayenne

Rice gets mushy

I added corn, and made a spice blend of red curry and tajin. I also used a bit more garlic, smushed three cloves with my knife before chopping and adding to the onion. All around very tasty

Very flavorful. Didn't add the cayan pepper, not a fan of burning my mouth. This was my first Vegan meal and my husband and I were very happy with the results. This will be a staple in our house.

This was super simple to make. Basically a one pot dish. I expected the spice level to be higher. Next time I will add more spices to ramp up the heat.

Medium Spicy. It's crazy how much 1tsp can make you sweat and burn a little. The olives really really make it perfect. The saltiness of them makes it the highlight of the dish to me because the flavor is a little mild but the tomato is also a highlighted flavor

Very good and very healthy!!! 😊

I used 2 19oz cans of beans and 1 28oz can of tomatoes with brown rice instead of white and it needed around 40min

It goes very nicely in small tortilla wraps!

Delicious recipe, great rice recipe.

Added chorizo and it was amazing. Subbed black beans for kidney. Definitely don't neglect the parsley oil. Next time top with queso fresco and maybe add corn.

I'll come back to this recipe to refine it with my own spin. The recipe as is needs work in my opinion. It was so bland.

Took away one can of beans, replaced with 650g (3) chicken breasts, delicious! Seasoned both chicken and veg/rice, so double seasoning if chicken.

Easy lunch for the week. Enjoyed it overall! Considering adding corn/cumin/cilantro for next time

Delicious meal. More of a side dish but goes well enough as a main course. I will sub cilantro for parsley in the parsley oil next time. Also, used 3/4 cups extra vegetable broth for the rice.

Lovely and tasty

this was so so good! Changed it slightly and instead of 2 cans of the kidney beans I did a can of kidney beans and a can of black beans! also added some red pepper and it did not dissapoint. It was also really simple and made a big batch so I don't have to cook for a few days. Will definitely be making again x

The kids actually loved this!! Made a few mods: Subbed 1 can black beans instead of 2 cans kidney. Used Elote’ seasoning. Added 1 small can of corn. Added leftover baked chicken, chopped. Served with a few tortilla chips for texture, shredded cheese and dollop of sour cream.

Good

7/10

Was super tasty, had a great flavour and spice to it

Surprisingly delicious 😋

Absolutely delicious! I make it once a month

Add 2 finely chopped bell peppers and a tin of butter beans!

This was really good and honestly had more flavor than I was expecting. I would probably make it again

This recipe is great because it really works as a base. Once you cook it, you figure out what it needs more, and then you have the perfect comfort food!!! I added chorizo sausages, fresh onion as a topping, more spices, and a bit more salt and MSG too. It makes for the perfect leftovers if you reheat it with an oven. Sometimes i put a sunny side up on top of it to make it more filling!!

Added peppers

Tweaked a bit with substitutions but ingredients stayed the same

So good. 10/10. Is going on rotation. Halved the rice though. You know, 'carbs'.

Meats: sausage, chicozeo & beef Queso freshco add Good for a base Mix up dressing too & filling Add 1 can Tom & 1/2 cup stock

The rice was a tad underdone even with all the broth reduced, so next time I'll add another 1/2 cup to be safe. This was delicious!

Forgot to take a picture. This was great! I used black beans instead of kidney beans which I don't like. It was easy to fix and delicious.

Added some fried beef sausages, but would probably be better with Choritzo. Needed an extra cup of water as started sticking to the pan after about 10 minutes of simmering. Quite tasty.

I made a slightly revised version of this with a bunch of cooked white rice. I had left over. I cooked it low and slow and it was fabulously delicious. Don’t skip the parsley oil. It makes a huge difference.

Rice and olives were nice, but the kidney beans stood out like a sore thumb. Would recommend other bean type. Trying brown beans or vedgetables next time.

I only had black olives, so a wee but of improv It turned out very good, would make again

Didn’t have olives, but I think it tasted fine without them. Will definitely make again and probably found a new, easy go-to.

Ended up adding a tin of tuna with it to give some more as it felt like it needed something extra. Would add some green beans next time but was lovely!

Could do with equal amount of beans and tomatoes. I needed to add more stock than in the ingredients. To add some additional flavour and nutrients, I'll put some runner beans in the pot and add some roasted vegetables (i.e., courgette or eggplant) at the end with the olives.

So good, definitely a budget meal I’ll be doing again, perfect for a student, one pot meal that makes loads of leftovers and tastes great, using things I usually have in the cupboard

What I’ll do next time: Double the olives 2 cans of diced tomatoes Add a spoonful of tomato paste Only 1 can of beans (black or kidney) Only a bit of lemon juice squeezed on top Needs a bit more water / broth for rice to get soft Only do like 1/4 of the Chilli spice it calls for

Ok so we ended up making the recipe a completely different way than what we posted earlier and it turned out so good!! The kiddo had the idea of making it like we make our Takikomi Gohan and it worked perfectly in our 6qt Instant Pot. We put it in to the pot in layers as follows: 1. 3 cups of brown rice - rinsed 2. All the called for seasonings along with the garlic 3. 2 small chopped white onions 4. About 15 or so chopped baby bella mushrooms 5. 2 medium diced zucchini 6. 2 cans of diced tomatoes 7. 4 cups of homemade vegetable broth Only things we didn't add were the beans and the olives. (Goes without saying we didn't use the oil but anyways.. ) Then we just hit the rice setting and let it do its thing. We used natural release ( it was about 30 mins after it stopped cooking when I got back in there to check it ) and it was perfect! We added 2 cans of kidney beans and a few green olives and popped the lid back on till dinner time leaving the keep warm setting going ( its below zero here so I wanted it to be piping hot when the Hubs gets home ). It was really hard not to just sit and eat it with a fork out of the pot hahahaha. Our version is not as "dry" looking as the original but I knew it would have a lot more liquid's when it was done because of all the veggies. I am ok with that because it makes the leftovers better. Anyways it worked! Kind of tickled with or little Instant Pot Food Adventure this evening. Here is my original post with the recipe https://www.facebook.com/livingwfpb/posts/pfbid02BNhwa6J7HzLVxBJHtReB4Zrq4Wj7pCnkeSj8oonDidbqmtGvKdUdGBq3QC8rsRsTl 😊

Delicious, but took like 3 times as long to make the rice tender enough.

The only way I make my rice and beans now. Could add just about anything if using this as a base. I do mine in the instant pot because I use brown rice and it comes out tender every time. Adds to the cooking time but it's worth it. I just chuck it all in there at once. Yum!

Added chorizo sausage and more parsley oil, amazing 🤗

Great base rice recipe with good portions. Personal touch: i'd add chorizo sausage next time

Good spicy taste. Parsley sauce is a nice touch. Green olives are the best.

Cooking times are WAY off for my gas stovetop. Took significantly less time.

I added a yellow pepper and some pork mince. Gorgeous

Demasiado picante. Estaba incomible.

Is missing some vegetables, will try it white cabbage next time

Amazing!

Would make again, loved the spices, super aromatic. Olives were the perfect topping, parsley oil too. Topped the rice with Chorizo, great combo.

Made without the rice and olives and it was great! Also added carrots and cilantro.

Absolutely delicious! Made a bit more so kept some for leftovers. I added some Quorn pieces and cheese

Delicious with a hint of spice! (I never measure spices, just throw in whatever I think)

Delish! Sad that the bottom layer of rice burns in the bottom of the bot tho.

Tasted great! Just would have doubled the spices next time to give it a little more flavor! Also didn’t use olives with mine as I’m not a fan of olives but pretty good overall! Would def make again with the spice adjustments!

Added more spices as it was lacking flavour, added some chicken for the meat eaters and olives were added to the adult plates

Simple and flavorful.

Made with whole grain rice. Took way longer to cook than expected (almost an hour). Doubled the spices except for hot pepper. Tastes delicious! Added avocado and some cheese

Added aubergine and sweetcorn and a pack of ready rice

What a great recipe! I didn't use olives, but everything else was great. Thank you!

This was absolutely delicious. It's so simple to make and can also be made with leftover rice. Definitely a keeper.

Add chicken!

Such an easy meal to make with cheap ingredients. I managed to make plenty of portions and found that very little went a long way.

Was very tasty (i know it doesn't look very nice on the picture lol) I put some extra lemon juice on it, but that's just my personal taste. Also, definitely put double the spices!

Good recipe. The parsley oil adds a nice lemon accent. It is easy to prepare, and the ingredients are pretty common and cheap.

Definitely double the spices, except the chilli/cayenne unless you like it spicy. First time doing this, I made it too spicy for me and my son.

Took the advice and doubled most of the spices and the garlic. Used two bags of boil in bag basmati rice, cut open and dumped in. No onion, puréed the tomatoes since my oldest won’t eat anything with tomato chunks and it added flavor and thickened it up. Only used two cups of chicken broth and it boiled down nicely. Served over ground taco beef and topped with cheddar Jack cheese. Would be fabulous with diced avocado on top. Did not have parsley but drizzled lemon oil over the top. Very filling!!!

Rice turns out a bit soggy but still tasty

The recipe is good but I had to change some things because, one it was bland and two it looked nothing like the picture. I added mexicorn (personal taste), a dash on cinnamon, sugar, doubled the spices, and 15 oz can of tomato sauce. I also added bacon because that's what my grandma's does. It was much, much better after that.

Double all spice except salt. Salt x 1.5

Nice dish with a light flavor. Yes, rice needs longer time to cook, my pan ran out of water, so I added another cup. It helped, but the rice was not fully cooked. The lemon parsley addition with olives blended well! Will do again, and simply add more liquid.

The rice did take me longer to cook but overall easy to cook and very tasty!

Added Spanish chorizo and used Castelvetrano olives. Wish the lemon and parsley came through in more bites but really like what they and the olives brought. Will check the rice sooner next time since it was a little over-cooked at 25 minutes.

Tasted good!

Use quick-cook brown rice, use ratios on box. For 2 cups of quick rice use 1 and 1/2 cups broth. Cook for 15-20m minutes. The lemon parsley oil is delicious!

Use extra spices and add your favourite vegetables.

Very tasty! I did not add the green olives but added a couple pinches of salt to the parsley oil.

Super easy, nice store cupboard meal! Definitely a to make again.

This looks delicious can't wait to try it

I have done this recipe before; however, I use brown jasmine rice and cook it on an instapot presure in high for 30 minutes

Stir through lemon and coriander at the end because I didn't have parsley yum :)

I added chopped carrots, yellow peppers, celery, corn and zucchini. It was delicious

Loved this recipe! I used canned chili beans instead of kidneys (it's what I had on hand and my hubby doesn't like kidney beans). I didn't drain the sauce but subtracted a cup of water due to the sauce in the can. Also used a cup of salsa.

Very flavorful. Used smoked paprika.

Sautéed ground turkey, onion, spices, garlic, mushrooms, red pepper first, then toasted the rice. Added this mixture and the rest of the ingredients to the instapot for 7 minutes. Delicious! I am going to put on lettuce with salsa and sour cream.

Instant Pot - Saute onions and garlic. Add other ingredients and cook high pressure 8 minutes (brown rice). Check if correct consistency. Top with avocado. Use leftovers for stuffed Bell Peppers later in week. We will see how that goes...

Lovely. Double the amount of spices

Leave out chilli for more kid friendly but Little one didn't like it

Okay, so this is very good and I would probably make it again but I think next time I want to try it with Black Beans. I used basmati rice which is my fave and it’s quite good. The surprise was the parsley lemon oil and the green olives added on top. I didn’t think I would like it but it elevates the flavor in an unexpected way. Give it a try!

This was so delicious was great, but I only used 1 can of kidney cans and on the parsley oil drizzle I used fresh cilantro since it was a Mexican dish and it was delicious. I also used zatarain Spanish rice and we loved it. A keeper for sure

Tasty! Added mushrooms and omitted the olives as not a fan. Easy, fairly quick one-pot recipe with cupboard staples. Really filling and healthy too.

This was delicious, I used smoked paprika instead of regular paprika as I didn't have smoked cherry tomatoes, and also added some cumin as well. I served it with sliced avocado over the top before drizzling the parsley oil (the oil really heightens this dish). If you prefer spicy food, maybe increase the amount of cayenne pepper and chilli powder, as this was fairly mild when I made it as per the recipe quantities.

Great result. We doubled all the spices. Was still delicious the next day. Can recommend adding chorizo if you're not vegetarian.

This was incredible! I added a little extra seasoning & had to add more broth later bc my pan didn't heat evenly enough. I love green olives by themselves, but not usually in a dish. Well in this, they were FABULOUS & my hubby who hates them, LOVED them in this!

Unfortunately I thought the recipe meant cooked rice so it ended up a bit mushy. It's tasty though and the recipe is pretty easy to follow.

Easy and delicious

Really good, especially with lots of olives.

Suggestion: Add jalapeno peppers to add flavour and spicyness

Really tasty. I loved the lemon, but partner said he would like it better without. Cooked for 25 minutes and rice burned to bottom of pan. Was able to salvage the top layer, but would cook for a shorter time next time. Recommend having all chopping and measuring done ahead of time since time between first few steps is short.

It wasn't bad and pretty easy to make. Just not mine or my family's choice...

Made it using salsa , didn't have roasted tomatoes and it was delicious. Also added some fresh Pico de Gallo on top. Definitely a make again maybe with some grilled chicken.

Added peppers, carrots and sausages. Delicious. Would maybe double up on the spices as they got lost in the tomato. The parsley oil makes such a difference - completely changed the dish. Totally worth it

Yum yum, lots of leftovers. Added prawns and broccoli for extra goodness. Left the cayenne pepper out and was spicy enough

The dish was easy to make and filling. Lots of leftovers. Wish I hadn’t forgotten the parsley! I’ll probably add a little extra spice next time too.

new staple dishh, amazing

I kind of messed up on it but it was still good. Make sure you don't cook the rice first 😂

I added some vegan sausage. Very tasty! I've had great success making this in a pressure cooker. Add ingredients minus olives and hit the rice button!

This wasn’t bad, it just was not our taste. I appreciate that this was very quick, very simple, and very inexpensive, it just wasn’t quite what I was looking for as far as flavor goes.

Didn't have fresh parsley so I just squeezed some fresh lime on top as a garnish, and some sweet and hot pickled jalapeño from Trader Joe's with the olives. Very good.

This was good. I skipped the green olives. I also liked the parsley oil topping.

Delish!

Delicious! Not a fan of olives so left those out. Definitely make again
