Directions

Put all veggies to be shredded through the processor (to save time).
Add all veggies to your crockpot or a large pot (including peppers and corn).
Add the beans and rice.
(Here would be the time to add the beef, if using).
Cover with tomatoes and tomato sauce and season with salt, pepper, oregano, basil, parsley and chili powder to taste.
Still well to combine all ingredients
Cover and cook on high 3-4 hours or on low 6-8 hours or until veggies and rice are cooked through.

I use it as a filling for tacos sometimes. I'm sure it would also be awesome as a dip with tortillas or nachos as well. Also great on it's own with a piece of cornbread. YUM! :)

Mexican Halibut Bake

This is a recipe I got from a friend and then toned it down some. She used a LOT more butter and definitely no fat-free or light items.

Here in Alaska, we find our chest freezer bursting with halibut and salmon. This is my favorite way to eat my halibut. The sauce is great as a dip as well. Especially yummy with bell peppers.Submitted by: KODIAKMAMA

I made this without meat. My family melted cheese on it and ate it with Tostito Scoops. They loved it this way. I opted for the lower cal version of no cheese and chips and it was good that way too. - 1/22/08
