Try this Brain-Dead Food- Curry Rice and Spinach recipe, or contribute your own.
Suggest a better descriptionI might have posted this before, but one of my favorite brain-dead foods (outside of spaghetti), is to take one box of Near-East Curry Rice and cook according to directions, without the added fat. While that is cooking, microwave 1 frozen block of spinach (for some reason fresh spinach doesnt taste as good to me in this recipe -- and takes longer unless already de-stemmed and washed). When that is done, drain and set aside. Nuke 1 can of black beans, drained and rinsed, and 1 can of diced tomatoes (minus some of the juice), mixed together (generally for about 3 minutes). When rice is done, mix spinach, rice, beans and tomatoes (generally in a large bowl). Snarf. Not only does it taste good, but its really colorful with the yellow rice, black beans, red tomatoes and green spinach. Very satisfying. Even my almost-3-yr-old loves it. Approximate total time: 25-30 minutes (time to cook rice) Source: apparent original Posted by mvklj@mvgpl.att.com (Karen L J Carr +1 508 960 6346) to the Fatfree Digest [Volume 16 Issue 5] Mar. 9, 1995.
