Cooking Steps

Cook rice
1
  • Before starting, to a medium pot, add 1 1/4 cups (2 1/2 cups) water and 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) salt. Cover and bring to a boil over high.
  • Wash and dry all produce.
  • Using a strainer, rinse rice until water runs clear.
  • Once boiling, add rice into boiling water, then reduce heat to low.
  • Cover and cook for 13-15 min, until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed.
  • Remove from heat. Set aside, still covered.
Prep veggies
2
  • Cut tomato into 1/4 inch pieces.
  • Core, then cut hot pepper into 1/4-inch pieces, removing seeds for less heat. (TIP: We suggest using gloves when prepping hot peppers.)
  • Zest, then juice half the lime. Cut remaining lime into wedges. 
  • Thinly slice green onions, keeping white and green parts separate.
  • Finely chop cilantro.
Cook beans
3
  • Meanwhile, heat another medium pot over medium. 
  • When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then green onion whites. Cook for 1 min, stirring often, until tender. 
  • Add black beans, including can liquid, stock powder and 1/4 cup (1/3 cup) water. Mash about half the beans with a fork. Cook for 3-4 min, stirring occasionally, until liquid thickens slightly. 
  • Remove from heat, then add 1 tsp (2 tsp) lime juice. Season with pepper, then stir to combine. 
Cook plant-based protein
4
  • Meanwhile, heat a large non-stick pan over medium.
  • When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then protein shreds and Tex-Mex paste. Cook for 6-8 min, tossing occasionally, until crispy.**
Make salsa and mayo
5
  • Meanwhile, to a medium bowl, add hot peppers, tomatoes, remaining green onions, half the cilantro, remaining lime juice and 2 tsp (4 tsp) oil. Season with salt and pepper, then stir to combine. 
  • In a small bowl, add mayo, remaining cilantro, half the lime zest and 1 tsp (2 tsp) water. Season with salt and pepper, then stir to combine.
Finsih and serve
6
  • Fluff rice with a fork. Stir in 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) plant-based butter and remaining lime zest. 
  • Divide rice and beans between plates. Top with protein shreds.
  • Spoon tomato salsa over top and drizzle with cilantro-lime mayo.
  • Squeeze a lime wedge over top.
