• In a skillet, cook onion, green pepper and celery in butter until onion is tender.
• Blend in rice, tomatoes, beans, seasonings and Worcestershire sauce.
• Cook slowly, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes.
• Turn mixture into a greased casserole.
• Bake at 350°F for 15 minutes.
• **Sometimes I like to melt a little Monterey Jack or cheddar cheese on top during the last 5 minutes of cooking.
• Also, if my daughter isn't eating with us, I'll use Rotel instead of the tomatoes. I've even been known to add a dash or two of hot sauce!
• If you don't like black beans, use pinto beans or chili beans. The choice is yours.
• Of course meat eaters can add browned ground beef or chicken.
• Also, to make this a really easy meal I sometimes cook it on the stove in my large cast iron skillet and just pop it in the oven in that! Now that truly is a one-pot meal!
