An easy way to do Brown Rice and beans

[P-funk]

Sometimes we don't have time to sit there and cook up brown rice. And lets face it, brown rice tastes great right after it is cooked. But 2 days later? that stuff tastes like crap!! yuk.

I have found this great product from Eden Organic

Caribbean Brown Rice and black beans. It tastes a little bland, but I throw some salt on it (it is low sodium) and either fajita seasoning, taco seasoning or salsa and it tastes great. It heats up well in the microwave too.

For a 1c serving, you get 240 calories, 2g fat, 46g carbs (of which 8g are fiber), and 8g of protein.

I make a crock pot FULL of them and freeze it. Then take out what I need when. Here is a post in one of my journals a while back on what I make: http://www.ironmagazineforums.com/showpost.php?p=1161636&postcount=149

I just happen to suck it up and eat it regardless of taste
