Title: Fast Pilaf
Categories: Diabetic Nut Bean Vegetarian Rice
Yield: 4 Servings
| 1 | c | Onions; chopped |
| 3 | cl | Garlic |
| 2 | | Tomatoes; chopped |
| 1 | lb | Beans; canned |
| 4 | c | Water |
| 2 | c | 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.) From Vegetarian Times
