Mexican chili bean rice -A mildly spiced Mexican rice preparation with kidney beans and bell peppers

Mexican chili bean rice- This popular Mexican rice is cooked with jalapeno,capsicum and kidney beans .Its a spicy preparation,you can also use  cooked canned kidney beans to make this ,but I prefer to soak and  cook myself.
I tweaked it slightly to suit my taste, which comes out well .You can reduce the amount of jalapeno if you want to make it milder and can also add red and yellow bell peppers,hope you will surely like this Mexican chili bean rice.
