Easy Cheesy Ranch Rice and Beans

Yes, as you can tell if you read my posts, Puppy Daddy and I love, love, love Mexican food. Of course, some type of rice and beans are a must for sides with a Mexican meal. Last night at our house was tacos and football night. I love tacos on football night because they are quick, and easy to eat while we watch TV and cheer on our favorite team. This recipe accompanied our tacos perfectly and thankfully our FSU Seminoles won the ACC championship. This recipe is super easy and really delicious!

All you need for this recipe is a package of yellow rice mix, a can of ranch style beans and some cheddar cheese. Just make the rice according to package directions. Then drain a little of the liquid out of the beans. Mix them with the rice and cheese.  Put mixture in an oven proof dish, top with a bit more cheese and bake for 20 - 30 minutes. Garnish with green onions to make it pretty.
