Brown Rice and Beans with Cheese

This is one of our favorite meals to make in the crock pot. It is really simple and doesn't require a lot of ingredients. It is brown rice, black beans, celery, cream of celery, vegetable stock, salt and pepper, and onion. You brown the onion and celery and add in the rice and salt and pepper and transfer everything to the crock pot. We typically only cook it for the directions for High so it doesn't burn. It says High for 4 hours, we found that about 3 and a half hours works best. We squeeze some it lime on top and top it with some cheddar cheese and also eat it with some flax seed tortilla chips. It is really a yummy and hearty meal.
