Rice & Black Bean Tray Bake

Can I print this

PUL Team - April 18, 2025, 9:10 p.m.

Hey Jadamarie! At the moment, there isn’t a direct print option for app-exclusive recipes. A handy workaround is to take a screenshot of the recipe on your phone and print it from there.

If you'd prefer to print just the text, you can copy the recipe from your screenshot (this works on iPhones!) and paste it into a document before printing. We’re exploring the idea of adding a print feature in the future 🤗

Loved this one
Read in the sun for an hour while this baked in the oven. Had it in tacos 🌮 delicious!
Lots of leftovers for burrito bowls tomorrow too.

Would this work with white basmati rice pls? Thanks

Hi Corinne, absolutely! White basmati rice should work well. Just be sure to keep it covered tightly while baking to help it cook through 😊

Ok thanks

Easy, tasty and filling 🤗

Great flavour and super easy.

Perfect for week nights. It was quickly done, totally easy and we ate it two days in a row. Absolutely loved it! My partner, too. Will do again.

10 mins hands on time only.
I used quinoa with the same amount of water. Turned out great.

Very good and easy. Will definitely make again

I love one pot/tray bake recipes. This one hits the spot every time! Great for serving large crowds at parties.

Loved it! Rice, beans, veg, spices, what's not to like! Super easy to make, but my oven dish is having a good soak 😜 I wrapped this in a tortilla with some pickled red onions, avocado, jalapenos and hot sauce. It's great for an after work meal as the prep is very minimal and the oven does all the work. I'll be having the leftovers for breakfast tomorrow! Next time, I'll remember to buy coriander to add to the wrap, as I bet that will be even tastier!

Thanks a bunch for taking the time to share your experience with the tray bake, Rob!

This was amazing!!! So easy to prepare, I will definitely repeat 😀

I used semi whole grain rice and it worked out perfectly in 55mins

Delicious

Delicious 🙌 added to my arsenal to impress friends .

A staple these days!

Loved it! Simple and easy to make and really tasty x

The taste was great! But my rice took waay longer to cook and was to wet and muchie at the end… I don’t know if I did something wrong. I did use the correct measurements.
Will try again tho

Hey Linsey, thanks for trying the recipe and sharing your experience with it. If the rice turned out mushy, it might have absorbed too much liquid. Different brands of rice can sometimes require a bit of a difference in the amount of liquid. It sounds like perhaps too much water was added for the type of rice used. You could try reducing the amount of water by a half or quarter cup if you give the recipe a try 🙂

Great dish to make for work lunches!!

This recipe made for some very tasty burritos! It is impossible to find chipotle adobo sauce here, so I just used some cayenne pepper and extra paprika. Will definitely make it again!

Quick and easy to make. Have made this a few times now, does not disappoint!

Perfect recipe! Everyone loves it

Question: is it possible to use brown rice instead of white? Or another gram such as quinoa or millet?

PUL Team - Jan. 3, 2024, 6:46 a.m.

Hey there, Lois! The tricky thing with using another grain is the cooking time and water ratios differ, and without testing it ourselves first, I can't say for sure how it'll work out. I suspect quinoa might be your best bet, just be sure to adjust the cooking time if needed. Let us know how it goes if you give any substitutions a try 🤗

Loved it! It's super easy and so much more convenient when you have friends over. Tastes just delicious 😋

Quick and easy meal!

Loved this easy way to enjoy Mexican flavours. I don’t like soy yoghurt, so just topped the stew with lime juice and zest, coriander, avocado, and some vegan sour cream that I had. Delicious!

So glad the tray bake was enjoyed, Mallory, thank you! ✨

Tastes amazing!

Very tasty!

You didn’t mention the salt, I had to put it on afterwards. Still delicious.

PUL Team - July 22, 2023, 10:25 p.m.

Hey Maria, we see the ¼ tsp salt on our end. Are you still not able to see it? 🙂

soumya bhat - Oct. 6, 2023, 1:54 a.m.

Hi! I see salt for the yogurt sauce but not for the tray bake

PUL Team - Oct. 6, 2023, 7:32 a.m.

Hey Soumya, apologies for the confusion. We've just double-checked, and we only used a ¼ tsp salt for the whole recipe (in the yogurt). There's already salt in the bouillon cube that's added to the tray so we chose not to add more. You're welcome to add more to taste if you think the tray bake needs it though 😊

Jenni - Nov. 7, 2023, 7:45 a.m.

Agree, the tray bake needed more salt!

Loved this recipe! Very nice, I also made the soya yoghurt with cilantro. I made it for 2 persons, but then I had a lot of open cans with leftovers. So I decided to use the leftover ingredients to make a chili, added some more mixed beans and left out the rice. It’s now in my freezer to enjoy another time.

PUL Team - July 18, 2023, 2:54 a.m.

Love the ideas to use up leftovers, Car! Thank you ☺️

Very basic question: does this use chipotle sauce OR the adobo sauce that canned chipotles come in? Thank you!

PUL Team - July 18, 2023, 2:07 a.m.

Hey CEH, here in the Netherlands it's in a bottle called "chipotle sauce" but it most similarly resembles adobo sauce if you're based in the US. It's simply made from a blend of chipotle peppers with water, tomato, vinegar, and spices (no mayo in the ingredients as can commonly be found with chipotle sauce).😊 I hope this helps!

Wonderful recipe

I loved this recipe. So easy to quickly throw in oven for a hearty meal. Delicious!

This was the first recipe I’ve made from PUL. I needed something quick to pull together and this was perfect. Super easy and packed with flavour. It was a hit with the family. Can’t wait to try more PUL recipes.

So thrilled to hear, Laura, thank you!

Really enjoyed this recipe ☺️ I ended up making it on the stove and adding it to the rice instead of using the oven. It was super flavorful and nourishing and perfect for meal prep!

Thanks for sharing your experience with it, Sambavi!

Really yummy and easy to make. We just enjoyed it as a rice bowl and topped it with avocado, fresh tomatoes and the yogurt dip! 😋

Hey there HV, so glad it was enjoyed and love the idea to make it into a bowl :D
