Time 50m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup white rice
2 cups water
2 (16 ounce) cans chili beans, undrained
1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce
¾ cup water, or more as needed
1 (8 ounce) container sour cream
1 cup crushed corn chips, or to taste
1 cup shredded Mexican cheese blend

Steps:

  • Bring rice and 2 cups water to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the rice is tender and the liquid has been absorbed, 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Stir chili beans, tomato sauce, and 3/4 cup water through the cooked rice; bring to a simmer over medium heat. Pour rice mixture into a 9x13-inch baking dish. Spread sour cream over the rice mixture. Sprinkle crushed corn chips over the sour cream layer; top with Mexican cheese blend.
  • Bake in preheated oven until heated through and the cheese is melted, about 15 minutes.
