One Pot Mexican Beef and Brown Rice
This dish is hearty and full of flavor. It uses brown rice, so it takes a bit longer to cook, but it's hands off for the most part. If you'd like to use long grain white rice or quinoa instead, be sure to adjust the cooking time. Recipe adapted from : Showmetheyummy.com

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Heat the oil over medium heat in a large skillet with a tight fitting lid. Add the onion and bell pepper and cook until the onion is translucent, 4-5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook an additional minute or so, until fragrant.
- 2
Add the ground meat and cook until browned, breaking it up as you go. Drain any excess grease, if needed.
- 3
Stir in the rice, diced tomatoes and beans. Then stir in the seasonings. Increase the heat to med-high.
- 4
Stir in the broth and the squash. Let it come to a boil. Once boiling, place the lid on and decrease the heat down to med-low.
- 5
Allow to simmer for 60 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking (if using a different kind of rice besides brown rice, then decrease the cook time), until the liquid has absorbed and the rice is tender.
- 6
Remove from heat once done and sprinkle the cheese over the top. Place the lid back on so the cheese will melt, about 2-3 minutes.
- 7
Serve immediately, and refrigerate any leftovers.

It's very versatile. Pictured with pinto beans instead of black beans and 1 cup corn kernels instead of squash -->

Cajun Style - Chicken, Black Beans & Brown Rice Cajun Style - Chicken, Black Beans & Brown Rice
This dish was originaly published as a bean and rice dish only. I had to spin it and add a lil spice. The spices, chicken and garlic were added to give it a kick and a little substance. I have made this for several different occasions and people, everyone raves about it.I have done it with a ground Italian sausage and added more heat by using the (Ro*tel Hot) instead of the mild.I hope you enjoy it as much as my family and friends do.

No-Soak Black Beans w/Lime-Cilantro Brown Rice No-Soak Black Beans w/Lime-Cilantro Brown Rice
Max Falkowitz wrote a whole article on Serious Eats on black beans for the lazy cook, AKA skipping the overnight soak. Its pretty interesting if you wanna check it out go herehttp://www.seriouseats.com/2014/09/lazy-cook-black-beans.htmlAnyways, he was absolutely right, I adapted his technique to my own black bean recipe and threw in some lime cilantro rice (preferably brown because i feel like a little fiber offsets the massive amounts of bacon this recipe starts off with). You'll need to get to the hospanic section of your grocery store to get some goya products. Buy in bulk! Stuff is great around the kitchen. Goes great with hot sauce if you're so inclined.

Noom Friendly Instant Pot Brown Rice Chicken Risotto Noom Friendly Instant Pot Brown Rice Chicken Risotto
This is a favorite of mine. I love risotto and making it with brown rice lets me feel good about it; it's a green food in Noom. The Instant Pot lets you toss everything in and heat go, as per usual. The chicken ends up pulling apart nicely and the risotto has that wonderful creamy texture.This recipe has a lot of flexibility. You can really put in any veggies that you got lying around. I personally go for carrots as they give it a natural sweetness.

Round, Stuffed Zucchini with Brown Rice, Ground Beef, Red Pepper Round, Stuffed Zucchini with Brown Rice, Ground Beef, Red Pepper
Found this online because I kept researching what kind of squash was in my yard. I found out from all my research it's either a pumpkin or round zucchini. So I got hungry and searched a round zucchini recipe and found this tasty one.
