Expert Tips

Keep with the Southwest-flavor theme by serving this meatless skillet meal with warmed tortillas or tortilla chips and sliced avocados and tomatoes.

For a heartier, meatier meal, you can add cooked ground beef or turkey with the beans.

Chili beans give a boost of flavor to this recipe, so be sure not to drain. The canned pinto beans are in a sauce of tomato paste, chili powder and other spices.

I've been making something similar to this for years. I'ts one of my family's favorite quick meals. I use mexicorn and add smoked turkey sausage or turkey kielbasa and chopped jalapeno peppers. When I don't have fresh ripe tomatoes, I use canned and drain them well. Delicious!
