veggie experiment: days 21 and 22

BEANS AND RICE TORTILLAS

sometimes i just take a can of black beans and season it with garlic, chili powder/cayenne pepper and onions and serve with the rice separate.

sometimes i cook 1 C rice and then mix in 2 cans refried beans, 1 can black beans and a half a can of corn.

sometimes i saute the rice in oil til brown and then boil with tomato bouillon and mix in fresh cilantro leaves.

or sometimes i'll do any or all combinations above and serve with the normal tortilla goodies like lettuce, tomato, olives, sour cream, guacamole, salsa, etc.

this time i did 3/4 C white rice and 1/4 C brown rice and just adding that tiny bit of brown rice made it noticeably more filling.
