Arroz y Habichuelas in Taco Sazon - Rice and Beans in Taco Seasoning


1 small onion, finely diced
1 medium tomato, finely diced
1 Bay leaf
1 to 2 tsp Taco Seasoning (I used McCormicks)
Pinch of Goya Sazon
Dash of garlic powder
Dash of salt, black pepper, and Italian spices
5 oz Pink Kidney Beans
1/2 tsp turmeric and cumin powder, each
3/4 cup cooked brown rice

Heat oil.  Add the bay leaf.  Add the onions and sautee till translucent. Add the finely diced tomatoes.  Add the cooked brown rice and sautee well.  Add the taco seasoning, garlic powder, goya sazon, black pepper, italian spice mixture, turmeric, and cumin powder.  Sautee well for 2 to 3 minutes on high heat.  Add the pink kidney beans.  Mix well and cook for another minute.  Voila!!! Dish is ready to eat!

Note: The taco seasoning and the goya sazon are both a bit salty. You may want to add the salt at the table depending on personal taste.

  1. Note: I just found out that Sazon Goya has MSG in it. Please leave it out if you prefer non-MSG food.
