Vegeterian Tips: Keep your favorite salad dressings on hand. I find that I m much more likely to eat my greens or some raw veggies when my favorite salad dressings are in the fridge. A little variety is great too I try to keep at least two kinds, either store bought or homemade on hand at all times. Some of my favorites are homemade goddess dressing, Thai peanut sauce from my local Asian grocer and rasberry vinaigrette. A vegan ranch dressing was helpful as well when I was trying to wean myself off dairy.
Ingredients (use vegan versions):
- 1 box Instant Brown Rice
- 2 packages powdered Chili or Taco Mix (Fat Free)
- 1 package Frozen Corn Kernels (optional)
- 2-4 can of kidney, red, pinto, black beans (drained) (any combination can work)
- 1-2 16 oz. jars of salsa
- 1 jar of diced tomatoes (drained)
Directions:
Prepare brown rice according to directions. Bring to medium
heat and add beans, corn kernels, and diced tomatoes. Stir.
Add powdered seasonings. Stir well. Add Salsa and mix well.
Simmer from 2-5 minutes or until mixture thickens.
While this can be served alone, it also goes great with
corn chips, a baked potato, a small salad, greens and
cornbread or yams.
Enjoy.
