Heating instructions | Rice, Beans & Happiness

Taco Tuesday

1. Rice- transfer to a microwave safe dish and heat for 3-4 minutes or until thoroughly warmed or transfer to oven safe dish, cover with foil and heat in oven at 350 degrees for 15-20 minutes.

2.Beans- transfer to microwave safe dish, (optional) add a splash of water, cover with wet paper towel so it doesn't splash, heat for 3-4 minutes in microwave. Stove top is a good option but more work.

3. Protein- you can follow instructions for beans, do not add water, and microwave for 3-5 minutes. My preferred method is on the stove top, transfer to a small-medium pan, cover with lid, stir every minute or so, use medium to high heat for 5-7 minutes. Do not walk away because you will be sad if you burn it.

4. Tortillas- I use my electric skillet, but you can use a non-stick large flat pan, set on high, you can warm up about 5 tortillas at a time, spread them out, flip after about a minute, heat for another minute, remove and place in a tortilla warmer or foil paper. Warm up all your tortillas at once. ****Do not microwave****

Enjoy!!

Pozole, Caldo Tlalpeno or any other soup!

Transfer soup to medium pot, turn heat on high, let it simmer for 3-5 minutes or until it reaches desired temperature. Enjoy with garnishes!
