hippy chow

I have a confession. Much of the time I don't have the time or cant be bothered to cook creatively, and have no money but some groceries. In these times I rely on hippy chow.

2 cups brown rice ( you set up the rice cooker last night , right?)

In skillet 
1 bunch / 1/2 lb green vegetables such as kale, brussel sprouts, broccoli, chard or whatever,
and 
1 sweet onion sliced
in 2 tsp olive oil
add 1/2 lb baby carrots or squash roasted last week while making nut loaf or red peppers, beets or some red or yellow veg (tomatoes are fruit, pick something else)

put out servings of rice and add veggie mixture


soy sauce (obviously in my case this is gluten free) and cheddar cheese to serve
vegans - add tofu or tempeh and some nooch.


Note...please keep in mind that rice grown in areas that are less traditional rice growing areas like MN and WI seem to have lower arsenic load than TX or SC rice because the soil was less likely treated before the arsenic ban back in the 70's. Buy it from a co-op and it's usually cheap too.
