Avocado cream (optional)

Preparation

Cook the Lundberg Organic Red Rice according to directions on package. Heat a skillet on medium high. Add the cooked rice, taco seasoning, tomato juice, chopped onion, minced jalapeno and water. Blend well and cook until the moisture evaporates. The rice will start to resemble taco meat.

If desired, warm the black beans in a small saucepan.

For the avocado cream, mash the avocados then blend the salsa, cilantro and sour cream. Use enough sour cream to achieve a thin spoonable consistency.

Fill the taco shells using the rice as the base and add your favorite fillings. Top with Avocado Cream.
