Default Mexican stir fry

My dad had this at a local restaurant and said it was wonderful. It did
have some rice in it, but really a small amount compared to the rest of it.
Also had pieces of chicken, carrots, onion, peppers, tomato and broccoli.
Had a red sauce on it and was topped with cheese.

I decided to make my own version of this to use up all the fresh veggies I
had that were soon to go bad. And to suit my tastes.

I started by coating a large skillet with olive oil, then browned a small
amount of rice. You could leave out the rice if you can't eat it. I then
add several chopped peppers, some onion, tomato, fresh corn, a small jar of
salsa and some water. Leave out the water if not cooking the rice. I
seasoned this with some Mexican seasoning from a jar, some salt and pepper
and added a can of drained kidney beans. Black beans would be good in this
too, but Angela doesn't like them. I didn't add any meat. Am going to
serve it with some pre-made shredded beef that I got from Costco.

With rice, cook for about 20 minutes or until rice is tender. I have a lid
on mine. I have made similar recipes without the lid, stirring and adding
water as needed. Without rice, just cook and stir until the veggies are
done.
