Fast and easy, will likely make this again sometime. It had ´too much tomato flavor for my tastes though.

This was pretty good. It was nice to have a beans & rice recipe that's DIFFERENT from all the others! I cooked brown rice instead of white to make it healthier.

I thought it was ok but my wife did not care for at all. Too soupy and not a great taste for her.

i like it alot yumm ! So do my nieces

Made a good quick and easy meal. Didn't have red beans so used blackeye peas instead. When making this dish didn't seem like it was going to be good but came out very good, I recommend you try it with blackeye peas very good taste.

This was pretty good. I thought it needed a little more heat so I added Tabasco. It was also very easy to prepare. I will probably make again.

I have made this recipe several times, and really liked it. BUT yesterday was the first time I used the adobo seasoning. This really killed it for me. The previous reviewer suggested leaving out all the "italian" seasonings because their mouth was confused. I have to agree that with ALL ingredients, I didn't like it as much. My 4 yr old gobbled it up, as is...but my husband and I did not enjoy it. It is an easy recipe. When I first found this, I was looking for some sort of beans and rice recipe that was not like black beans and rice (something different?). Without the adobo, it's like spaghetti sauce with beans and we liked it quite a bit. By the way, I did drain and rinse my beans.

Don't use the oregano, basil or thyme or olive oil. This isn't an Italian dish! I tried it your way and my mouth was confused! Getting snowed in can be sooo frustrating. Next time, use bacon grease or peanut oil and ground chiles..or chopped fresh chiles .. use garlic fresh or dried, salt, and LOTS of dried cumin. ( Cumin is what gives Mexican foods their "Mexicaness" ) God bless you!

Just out of curiosity, am I supposed to drain the beans, or leave the juice? I left the juice, my picky 2-yr. old loved it, and it was much better than my stepmoms(attempt at) spanish rice! she is sooo jelous... and I couldn't be happier!Thanks!

Easy and tasty. This would make a good quick lunch. I made a few small changes: used fresh herbs instead of dried and doubled their measurements, and used a 1/4 tsp of cumin seeds instead of the adobo seasoning.

Good recipe - go easy on the salt.

Nice flavor. I followed a tip from a previous review to make my own adobo seasoning. Sauce was a bit runny for me, though - and too much tomato flavor. I like thick Cajun style red beans and rice better. I would eat this again, as it was EASY to make... but the kids hardly touched it. :(

I LOVE these beans! I've made them a few times and it is the quickest, easiest recipe, and it's great to take to work the next day. I also did not put any seasoning into the rice, and I cannot find Adobo anywhere so I found a recipe online to make your own: 1 TBS oregano, 2 TBS garlic powder, 2 TBS onion powder, and 1/5 TBS cumin.

We really liked this one. I omitted the additional adobo in the rice, but that was the only change.

I wasn't sure if I was to drain the beans. I used "chipolte" seasoning. Four teaspoons rendered it almost too spicy to eat. I'm think it would be good with 2 tsp. Is chipolte seasoning and adobo seasoing different? Will still make it again as it's super quick and no chopping!

this was a great recipe, it went over really well with my son who hates beans but loves rice (!?!). I added some left over hummus to the sauce and used brown rice instead of the white.

I really liked this...a nice, no-frills red beans & rice side dish. Good flavor, didn't compete with main dish.
