One Pot Mexican Rice - a flavour packed rice dish with spicy tomato flavours, black beans and a little kick of jalape\u00f1o that makes the perfect side for all your favourite Mexican inspired meals. It is easy to make, full of colour and delicious enough to enjoy all on its own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I always love finding ways to make simple sides feel a little more tasty, and this Mexican rice does exactly that. The fresh blended tomato and spice mixture gives the rice that gorgeous colour and loads of flavour, while the black beans make it extra hearty and satisfying. Once everything is started on the stove, it finishes cooking in the oven, leaving you free to get on with the rest of dinner.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
