Fiesta Enchilada Rice Salad
This great recipe uses the same idea as my Cheesy Beef and Roasted Pepper Enchiladas but as a more mild, chilled salad. Big chunks of cheese, black beans, corn, peppers, onions, cilantro and ground beef are combined with enchilada sauce and rice.
Ingredients:
  4 cups cooked rice
  1 can black beans, drained (do not rinse)
  ¾ lb. ground beef
  1 cup onion, chopped
  1 cup corn
  ½ cup roasted sweet red pepper (Vlasic brand), chopped
  2 jalapeño peppers, roasterd, peeled and sliced
  1 tbl. green tabasco sauce
  ½ cup enchilada sauce
  ½ cup sharp cheddar cheese, cubed
  ½ cup jalapeño jack cheese, cubed
  ¼ cup cilantro, chopped
  2 tsp. cumin
  1 tsp. garlic-pepper seasoning (to taste)
  salt (to taste)
