Recipes

So there is never really any rhyme or reason to our recipes but here is one of our staples...

Rice & Beans!

We eat this about 2-3 times per week. In fact, I should probably note that we don't eat meat during the week. Don't mistake this to believe that we are vegetarians - we love, love, love, some delicious chicken, turkey, and even bacon! But we have become educated enough to know that it's much healthier (and cheaper!) to ditch the meat as often as we can! We are determined to live to 100! :)

So here's what we got here: Royal Blend Rice Select Mix Blend, black beans, lima beans, and a bunch of spices! We soak the beans over night in a bowl of cold water, then we simmer them in that water for about an hr or so...the black beans are so good if you can cook them until mushy and soupy! Cook the rice according to package, pour your beans over your rice and WA-LA! YUMMY STUFF! Sometimes we add some red skin potato in there too - tastes just like chicken :)

Let me know if you try it!!
