1 cup Onions, chopped
3 cl Garlic
2 Tomatoes, chopped
1 lb Beans, canned
4 cup Water
2 cup Quick brown rice, quinoa, or couscous
Saute onions and garlic in olive oil until tender. Add tomatoes,
beans, water and grain. Season with herbs and spices of your choice.
Cook until the grain is tender. Serve with tossed salad.
Food Exchange per serving: 1 STARCH/BREAD EXCHANGE + 1 VEGETABLE
EXCHANGE (I would cut back on the beans to make it count as 1
starch/bread) (I also would use a combintion of couscous & quinoa and
even add any free
vegetables. This would be great to make ahead and take to work in
the summer time.)
