Serve this easy rice and bean casserole topped with avocado and sour cream or use as a burrito filler. Inspired by Green Valley Kitchen's Rice and Black Bean Casserole.

This is a wonderful Cuban picadillo recipe with ground beef and chorizo sausage. I serve it in a bowl (like chili), on a roll, or over cornbread.
Tipsy Fruit
While this fruit salad won't get you tipsy, it's so delicious you might not stop eating it! The recipe uses a variety of fruits in a light, margarita-inspired dressing that stays good for a couple of days when kept chilled. Mango or jicama can be added if you don't feel stuck to the original recipe.
