IMO it sounds best with a no at the beginning: "No, there are neither [rice nor beans]."

@Kat That's a good point. "No," by itself, is an answer, and the rest of the sentence gives the answer again in greater detail. That is fine; it provides emphasis to the statement. Using "no" in this way does not constitute a double negative.
