I have been incorporating more vegetarian-based protein sources in my diet lately. You get the double benefit of the protein and the other nutrients that aren’t in meat. I am not cutting out meat, but I think going toward a new balance. It’s a great journey, huh?

I hope your weekend is fabulous – so wishing I could have gone! Can’t wait to hear all about it.

Delicious and hearty meal! I am a beans and rice fan for sure- the combo is always satisfying.
Sorry I won’t get to see you at the Foodbuzz Festival as I couldn’t attend at the last moment.
Hope you have fun!

Made beans and Spanish rice this week. I served/am serving them as sides to three different dinners, plus they will be our lunches on Friday. Really tasty, but so wonderfully economical.

Your sausage addition is a must try!

In Colombia we eat beans and rice 3 times a day! This looks delicious.

Leftovers are so great for inspiration and I love eating leftovers the next night – it often gives me an opportunity to eat a meal with different side dishes or just to relax – rice and beans is a great way to use up bits and pieces from the fridge – must do it more

That looks really, really tasty. The only kielbasa I eat is turkey kielbasa, but that would work. And don’t you just love kale?????

Delicious! I love beans and rice. I only wish I had a bigger freezer to store the pre-soaked ones. I love that idea.

To me, rice and beans was the equivalent of saying “food” when I lived in New Mexico (with the addition of chili, of course!). And yes, it’s one of those dishes that can incorporate anything that you’ve got left over in the fridge – which means that it’s the basis of some of the best dishes ever!

Never thought of soaking things first and then throwing them in the freezer. What a great idea – thanks!

Yup, very Diet for a Small Planet. I love cooking with pantry staples.
Looks tasty!
