Add black beans, kidney beans, pinto beans, and diced tomatoes (with all the liquid) to pot. Mix well.
Bring to a small boil, and reduce heat. Simmer for 20-30 minutes or until flavors blend together. Add cooked rice to pot, and mix well. Hold hot until service. Serve 8 ounce portion, topped with 1/2 ounce cheese.
