-------- ------------ --------------------------------

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 large yellow onion -- chopped

1 green bell pepper -- diced

2 jalapeno chiles -- seeded and minced

2 cloves garlic -- minced

1 tablespoon pure chile powder

1 teaspoon ground cumin

At least once a month, my husband makes a big pot of rice and beans. They

are hearty, nutritious, and easy to make (and reheat later in the week).

This version is enlivened with olives and spices.

 

In a large saucepan, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the onion, bell

pepper, jalapeiios, and garlic, and cook until the onion and bell pepper

are tender, about 8 minutes. Stir in the chile powder, cumin, and annatto

and cook 1 minute. Add the rice and water and heat to boiling. Reduce

heat to low, cover, and simmer 15 minutes or until liquid is absorbed and

rice is tender. Stir in the beans and olives and heat through. Remove

from heat, and stir in the cilantro. Salt to taste.
