Let me show you a simple Mexican-inspired rice and beans recipe you and your friends can enjoy.
➡️ Black beans are a good source of fiber, proteins, and vitamins.
Coupling with the fragrant basmati rice, peppers, cilantro, and lemon juice only ensures this meal is both aromatic and healthy at the same time.
The addition of strained tomatoes, cumin, paprika, and cayenne spices gives this dish the flavor we look for in Mexican-inspired meals.
➡️ This dish is for sure one of the easiest, most aromatic, and flavorful meals you could quickly fire up from your kitchen.
You now have one recipe in your back pocket you could go to whenever you need a Mexican-inspired meal or just to have an excuse to open that can of black beans in the back of your pantry.
???? Is there another Mexican-inspired dish you'd like to see me prepare? Let me know in the comments below.
▶️ RECIPE INGREDIENTS: (4 servings approx.)
1 Cup / 200g White Basmati Rice (washed thoroughly with water)
2 Cups / 1 Can (540ml Can) Cooked Black Beans OR Pinto Beans (drained/rinsed)
3 Tablespoon Olive Oil
1 +1/2 / 200g Cup Onion - Chopped
1 Cup / 150g Green Bell Pepper - Chopped
1 Cup / 150g Red Bell Pepper - Chopped
2 Tablespoon Garlic - finely chopped
3/4 Cup / 175ml Strained Tomatoes / Passata / Tomato Puree
1 Teaspoon Cumin
1 Teaspoon Paprika
1/4 Teaspoon Cayenne Pepper or to taste
1 Cup / 125g Frozen Corn kernels (you can use fresh corn)
1 Cup / 240ml (low sodium) Vegetable Broth **OR AS REQUIRED
✅???? (**NOTE - Sometimes one batch of basmati rice is dried than the other so may require more liquid to cook. SO ADJUST ACCORDINGLY)
Salt to Taste (I have added total 1+3/4 Tsp of Pink Himalayan Salt)
Garnish:
1+1/2 cup / 100g Green Onion - chopped
1/2 to 3/4 cup / 20 to 30g Cilantro (Coriander leaves) or to taste - chopped
OPTIONAL - Lime or Lemon juice to taste (Taste the rice first and ADD ONLY IF IT’S NEEDED, I have added 1/2 tablespoon of lemon juice as I like it a bit sour)
Black pepper to taste (I added 1/2 teaspoon)
Drizzle of extra virgin Olive oil (I have added 1 tablespoon of organic cold pressed olive oil)
▶️ METHOD:
Thoroughly wash the rice - a few times until the water runs clear. Drain 1 can of black beans. Set the rice and beans aside to drain any excess water.
(Use a Wider Pot to cook this dish, the rice will cook more evenly without getting mushy).
To a heated pot add olive oil, onion, red and green bell pepper, salt and fry on medium to medium high heat (depending on the heat of your stove) until the onions and pepper starts to brown. Adding salt to onion/peppers will release it's moisture and help it cook faster, so don’t skip it.
Once the onion starts to brown, add the garlic and fry for about 1 minute or until fragrant. Then add the strained tomatoes, ground cumin, paprika, cayenne and mix well. Add the washed rice, cooked black beans, corn kernels, salt, vegetable broth and mix well. Bring to a boil and then cover and cook on low heat for about 15 minutes or until the rice is cooked (but not mushy).
Uncover and turn off the heat. Add the chopped green onion, cilantro, lemon juice, black pepper, drizzle of olive oil and mix it very gently because rice is very soft at this point and over mixing can cause the rice grains to break.
(NOTE: taste the rice before adding lemon juice and add lemon juice ONLY IF NEEDED)
Cover and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving. This recipe is perfect for meal planning and can be stored in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days.
▶️ IMPORTANT TIPS:
- Use a Wider Pot to cook this dish, so that the rice can cook more evenly without getting mushy
- Every stove is different so regulate the heat accordingly
- The Cooking time depends on several factors - the type of pot being used, heat of the stove, moisture content of the ingredients etc. so please use your judgement and adjust the cooking time accordingly
- Thoroughly wash the rice until the water runs clear to get rid of any impurities/gunk (it's an important step so please do not skip it)
- This recipe is for white basmati rice, if you are using a different kind of rice adjust the water accordingly

How To Make Vegan Thai Rice Salad - Best Tips & Tricks
1. Adapt this simple rice salad recipe to your taste
I made this vegan rice salad with a mix of wild and brown rice. I think this is the best combo because it’s the healthier version of rice and it also has a better texture and nutty flavor.
Brown rice has a much healthier nutrient content than its white version and it’s richer in fiber, vitamins and minerals. So I definitely recommend it but I also understand that it may not always be easily available.
In this case, you can replace it with white rice. Or, you could go for the even healthier options like quinoa, barley, buckwheat or bulgur.
Moving on to the veggies, you can go for any kind you like. Just think about the texture when choosing the veggies and keep in mind to chop them into small bite-sized pieces.
If you want this Thai rice salad to have a crunchy texture, you can make it with peppers, carrots or cabbage.
And if Kale is not easily available you can replace it with baby spinach or romaine salad.
Furthermore, I made this vegan rice salad with cashew because I love their sweet and delicate flavor. But you can replace them with pecans, almonds, chopped hazelnuts or walnuts.
Now that you know how to adapt this Thai rice salad recipe to your taste, let’s see how to serve it.
2. How to serve this vegan rice salad
This Thai rice salad is perfect as a main but you can also serve it as a side-dish. It goes great with many dishes like Mozzarella Chicken or Chicken Lasagna.
Of course, it won’t be vegan anymore and if that’s not a problem, then you can add it some grilled chicken or hard boiled eggs.
This way, it will be more nourishing if served as a main.
And if you want it even more filling but still vegan, you can add fried tofu or baked chickpeas.
This vegan rice salad goes perfectly for lunch and dinner. Furthermore, it fits in a lunch box, which means it’s great for meal planning.
3. This simple rice salad recipe is perfect for meal planning.
This simple rice salad recipe is great for your weekly meal prep. You can make it ahead and place it in airtight containers, then keep it in the fridge for up to 5 days.
But there’s something very important to remember here. Keep the salad and dressing in separate containers and only mix them before serving. Don’t mix them before otherwise, the salad will get soggy.
So that’s about it with the tips and tricks. You’re now more than ready to make this simple rice salad recipe.
And you know the drill, don’t you? After making it, snap a shot, post it on Instagram and tag me @theblondelish and use the hashtag #blondelish so I can see what you make of my recipes.

Mango Chicken Wholegrain Brown Rice Salad | Carolina® Rice
Bored to tears with the same old chicken salad? Try something new for dinner tonight with this Mango Chicken Rice Salad.
Find the recipe here:
It is quick and easy and can be tossed together in 15 minutes or less. While your rice and quinoa cook, prepare your fresh veggies to toss together with a delicious honey, lime and ginger vinaigrette. 100% Whole Grain Brown Rice adds a nutty and filling flavor alongside the protein-packed quinoa.
On a side note: What is Quinoa?
Quinoa (pronounced KEEN-wah) is the seed of the Chenopodium quinoa plant. Botanically speaking, it’s not a grain. However, it’s often called a “pseudo grain” because it’s similar in nutrients and eaten the same way as cereal grains.
Quinoa was first grown for food 7,000 years ago in the Andes. The Incas called it “the mother grain” and believed it was sacred. Although it’s now grown around the world, the majority is still produced in Bolivia and Peru. It was largely unknown to the rest of the world until very recently.
Since then, it has experienced a huge surge in popularity because of its benefits. Plus, it is also easy to grow in a range of conditions.
Quinoa is also popular because it’s a Gluten Free grain.
Now, back to the Mango Chicken Rice Salad: This salad can be tossed together for a quick weeknight meal or a lunch at the office that will keep your energy level high throughout the day.
Salad rice bowls are becoming exceedingly popular because they are so versatile and easy to make. The options of nuts, veggies and cheese that you might add are endless. Because rice bowls rely on easy components like white or brown rice, a protein, a veggie, and a sauce you can almost always improvise them without a trip to the store. Each bowl should contain around 1 cup of rice.
What is your favorite salad rice bowl? Let us know in the comments below.

This is part 2 of special video series 5 Colours of Thai Rice! After exploring Thailand's staple white jasmine rice, it's time to look at the healthier sister: brown jasmine rice. Now, if you don't like brown rice, hear me out, this is not your average brown rice! Being of the jasmine variety, it's tender, fluffy, and a little nutty, but it still has that same floral aroma we love in jasmine rice. But because it's a whole-grain rice, all of its nutritional benefits are still intact.
