make it normally except no meats..... i think...
the same way you make regular mexican rice just without the meat
No one in Mexico would make a dish without chilies. Dice an assortment of vegetables, aubergine, red and green peppers, courgettes (zucchini) and fleshy tomatoes.. Slice onions garlic and chilies. Sweat off the onions garlic and chilies. Start to boil the rice and then add the prepared veg and the onions etc. Just before the rice is cooked add some canned sweet corn and a can of red beans. A squeeze of lime wouldn't go amiss. Or you can quarter lime and garnish the dish - add some coriander leaves at the very last minute. There you have it chili con carne without the carne.
Hey Foxhunter Guy. Don't ya know chicken ain't vegetarian????
Chickens eat their own poo, which contains ex-body parts. So they CAN'T be veggie.
