Ingredients

  • 3 cups of raw white rice
  • 3 cups of water
  • 1 can of fully cooked luncheon meat, cubed (12 ounces, like SPAM®)
  • 3 cans of kidney beans, along with their flavorful liquid (15 ounces each)
  • A generous ¼ cup of butter
  • Just a hint of ⅛ teaspoon dried onion flakes

Step 1

In a saucepan, bring a combination of rice and water to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, lower the heat to medium-low, cover the pan, and let it simmer until the rice is tender and has absorbed all the liquid, which should take about 20 to 25 minutes.

Step 2

In another large saucepan, mix together luncheon meat, kidney beans along with their liquid, butter, and onion flakes. Heat the mixture over medium-high heat until it starts to simmer. Then, reduce the heat to medium-low, cover the pan, and let it simmer for approximately 15 minutes. Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking.

Step 3

To serve, spoon the flavorful bean mixture over the cooked rice. This delicious dish is now ready to be enjoyed!
