Yellow Rice with Kidney Beans and Spinach

Hello on the 26th day of the Vegan Month of Food!  I'm not exactly sure what I'll have as my final five posts, but I'm pretty sure that my pumpkin brownies will be among them since I've been looking forward to making them for Halloween again!  Today I have a dinner recipe that, even though I put it together without much planning, ended up turning out well.

Yellow Rice with Kidney Beans and Spinach

Ingredients:
--Carolina Yellow Rice mix
--1 T olive oil or vegan margarine
--1 2/3 cup water
--1/3 can kidney beans, drained and rinsed
--handful of spinach, washed

Prepare the yellow rice according to package directions.  Add in kidney beans after the rice has been simmering for at least five minutes, and add in the spinach when the rice is almost done.  Serve with corn and potatoes.

Peace.  :) 

Yellow Rice and Vegetables on Pita

Hello on the 18th day of the Vegan Month of Food!  Today I have a post about a quick and easy lunch, the same general idea as a previous post with brown rice, but I felt that this was a colorful enough meal to include anyway.

Yellow Rice and Vegetables on Pita

Ingredients:
--Carolina Yellow Rice mix
--1 T olive oil or vegan margarine
--1 2/3 cup water
--carrots 
--snow peas
--pita

Prepare the yellow rice according to package directions.  Add in chopped carrots and snow peas.  Toast pita lightly and top with rice.  Serve with a side salad of mixed greens.

Goodnight, and looking forward to tomorrow when I'll share my exciting dinner from tonight...vegan sloppy joes!

Peace.  :)
