This is a Filling dish. It makes 4 servings, so if not everyone enjoys this (beans Freak my kids out and rice Freaks out 2 of them), then you have something for a grab-and-go situation for a Few days out into the Future. Just portion, mix up, and Freeze what's left.
I'm still having a heck of a time Finding baked tortilla chips, and the scoops above claimed to be baked. They didn't taste baked either, but I'd like to Find some regular baked tortilla chips and do a value comparison before I promote those babies.
Ingredients:
1 (16-oz.) can pinto beans, drained
1 (14.5-oz.) can no-salt-added whole tomatoes, undrained & chopped
1 (10-oz.) can premium chunk white chicken in water, drained
1 Tbsp. chili powder
3 Tbsp. no-salt-added tomato paste
3/4 tsp. ground cumin
1/4 tsp. salt
***************
2 c. hot cooked long-grain rice, cooked without salt or fat
1/2 c. (2 oz.) shredded reduced-fat Monterey Jack cheese
1/4 c. thinly sliced green onions
40 baked tortilla chips (10 per serving)
Directions:
Combine first 7 ingredients in a large saucepan. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer 10 minutes or until thick, stirring occasionally. Spoon rice onto a serving platter and top with chicken mixture, shredded cheese and sliced green onions. Arrange tortilla chips around outside edge of platter.
To serve up individually, each portion will be 3/4 c. chicken mixture, 1/2 c. rice, 2 Tbsp. cheese, 1 Tbsp. green onion, and 10 tortilla chips.
