INSTRUCTIONS
Make Ahead and Set Aside: - - Make the red sauce (see recipe). - - Make 5
to 6 cups of rice. Use 1 1/2 cups long grain converted white rice OR brown
rice. - - Make 5 to 6 cups of beans or use 3-15 ounce cans. Pinto, black or
kidney beans, are good choices. Drain; place in a large bowl and mash.
In a large nonstick saute pan or sauce pan, heat oil. Add onion and garlic
and cook until soft. Add tomato sauce, chili powder, pepper flakes, cumin
and salt. Cook slowly, uncovered, 15 minutes to blend flavors.
Add half of the tomato mixture to the cooked beans in the bowl. Stir to
blend. Add the cooked rice to the remaining half of the tomato mixture.
To assemble: Preheat oven to 350F. Lightly oil a very large (9X16X3-inches)

A Message from our Provider:
“A thankful heart is one of the primary identifying characteristics of a believer. It stands in stark contrast to pride, selfishness, and worry. And it helps fortify the believer’s trust in the Lord and reliance of His provision, even in the toughest times. No matter how choppy the seas become, a believer’s heart is buoyed by constant praise and gratefulness to the Lord. #John MacArthur”
