I created this deliciously tasty baked Mexican rice recipe to celebrate National Rice Week and it’s incredibly tasty.
The recipe is super easy to make – firstly add the long grain rice, beans, veg and stock to a casserole dish and bake for 15 minutes. The long grain rice works brilliantly here, as it absorbs all the lovely flavours whilst baking.
In the mean time make a smokey tomato sauce with Mexican spices then add sauce to the rice and bake for a further 15 minutes until everything is absorbed and the rice is super tasty.
I love to serve with a fresh mango salsa which adds instant freshness and so much flavour. The whole dish is packed with flavour and perfect for the family.
I love cooking with rice as its probably the best store cupboard staple in my opinion as its incredibly versatile and nutritious.
I hope you really enjoy this delicious recipe and you can find more information here about how to Rice Up Your Life http://www.riceassociation.org.uk/

Did you know that I have a new cookbook?
It's called Rebel Recipes and I'm so proud of it. If you like my recipes I know you'll love my cookbook - It took me over a year to develop (and years in the making) and it's packed with deliciously vibrant veg packed recipes!

This looks so tasty. Would it work with brown rice?
Yes for sure, might need a little more cooking time

This looks delicious but my son is allergic to mango. Do you think it would work with pineapple?
Hi Carrie
I think so yes.. or cherry tomatoes.
