INGREDIENT:

• 1/4th cup Frozen Seasoning Veggies (Onions, celery, bell pepper)
• 1 cup Rice (I prefer Brown Basmatti)
• 2 cups broth (can also substitute V8 or tomato juice for half)
• 1 cup salsa
• 1 can Beans (can be Red, Kidney, Pinto, Black, Soy, Garbanzo. Drained and Rinsed!)
• 1 small can diced green chilies
• 1/4th cup Frozen Whole kernel Corn

DIRECTIONS:

In a pot, that has a tight fitting lid, saut� the seasoning veggies. When they are wilty add in the rice and give a quick stir. Add remaining ingredients to pot and bring to a boil. Cover and simmer according to rice directions. (20 ~ 60 minutes.)

This is quick and takes care of itself while I play EQ. When not battling the clock I use fresh veggies and add in diced bell peppers, sliced carrots and green onions.

I have been known to not only just eat this plain but also wrapped in a tortilla, made into salad or over tortilla chips. Even just topped with a spoonful of Sour Supreme or diced avocados makes it wonderful. Of course you can probably add cheese and meat if your so inclined but I'm a vegetaiian and prefer it this way

INGREDIENTS:

• 1 LB of ground beef (can also do turkey)
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 package of "Macaroni and Cheese" with the *paste* cheese sauce
• 1 tablespoon ground garlic
• 1 tablespoon paprika
• Various vegetables to taste - I use 1 small can of mushrooms, 1 small can of peas, 1 small can of corn, and 1 small can of stewed tomatoes.

DIRECTIONS:

This recipe assumes that your ground beef is thawed.

In a large cast-iron skillet, heat the olive oil. Once it begins to bubble, reduce heat to medium and add the ground beef. As the beef begins to brown, stir in the paprika and garlic.

Once the beef is completely browned, remove from heat and drain off the grease (this is optional, but healthier)

Add the vegetables, including the liquid. Stir well. If you use frozen or fresh veggies, add enough water to JUST cover everything.

Heat on high until the liquid begins to bubble.

Add just the macaroni and stir well. Once it begins to bubble again, reduce heat to low and cover.

Cook for 20 minutes.

Remove cover and stir in the cheese sauce

Let sit for 5 minutes, and serve.
