DIRECTIONS
Easy Enchiladas
1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Brush a 9″x13″ baking dish with olive oil.
2. In a medium bowl, combine rice, beans, corn, and cumin along with 1 cup of the grated gouda and stir to combine. Season with salt to taste.
3. Lay a tortilla flat and spoon about ¹/³ cup of the rice mixture along the centre. Roll the tortilla up tightly, and place seam-side-down in the prepared baking dish. Repeat with the remaining tortillas, tightly tucking each enchilada beside the next.
4. Pour the enchilada sauce over the tortillas and sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of grated gouda on top. Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until the sauce bubbles.
5. Remove from oven and garnish with avocado and cilantro, and jalapeño, if using. Serve with sour cream and lime on the side.
Dirty Rice
1. Thoroughly wash and drain the rice with a fine-mesh sieve.
2. Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onions, garlic, bell pepper and jalapeno and sauté for 1-2 minutes, or until the onions become translucent.
3. Toss in the rice and sauté until it’s lightly toasted and golden brown, about 2 minutes.
4. Add in the cumin, salt, tomato sauce and chicken broth, then stir everything together.
5. Bring the mixture to a boil, cover, reduce the heat and simmer until the rice is cooked all the way through – about 15 minutes.
6. Garnish with chopped cilantro and serve immediately.
