Vegetarian Mexican Fried Rice

I love mexican foods which is spicy somewhat and cheesy yet deliciousely fills my mouth. Today let me give one of my favourite mexican rice recipe. You can avoid cheese if you are cautious about the calories and fat it gives to you. Here also i have omitted cheese as i feel to omit :-).  Vegetarian Mexican Fried Rice is cooked rice tossed with kidney beans, corns, peppers and seasoned with some ordinary spices like salt and cayenne pepper powder. This will make cooking process faster. The amount of beans and all other veggies can be varied as per your taste. This recipe is spicier, so you can balance the spiciness by adding sugar or adjust the red chilli powder. You can also use ready-made enchilada sauce for this recipe.
