MMmmm Curry Rice and Beans

After returning from hot yoga, completely drained of energy I was craving some rice and beans (AKA a Chipotle vegetarian burrito bowl with a Coke?!) but I settled for what was in my fridge and pantry with the flavoring of curry as my guide.

Curry Rice Bowl
1 cup of Whole Grain Jasmine Rice
Curry seasoning (i just kept shaking that spice bottle until I liked the color and flavor) (Id guess 1-2tbs)
Cumin
Chili powder
Coriander (all seasons found in Curry, I just added more for some extra kick)
1 tomato
Feta cheese (remember that feta is salty and can stand in as your salt seasoning)
1 can of garbanzo beans
Cook rice and add curry and other flavorings. I just did the seasons to taste. Kept sampling with a spoon. Add drained garbanzo beans to the cooked rice and let the hot rice heat the beans. Slice tomatoes to bite size. Top the tomatoes with some oil and feta, even amounts of tomato and feta. Then top the feta tomato mixture on the rice and beans. Enjoy your quick and tasty lil protein bowl with a glass of ice water and continue onward with your day, fully charged:)



Employment is looking way up. I got an offer to cook, part time in a kitchen! (Thank god only part time, unemployment... more like funemployment) ((heard that one from a friend the other day))
The blog is proving a most fun addition to my life, a motivation to continue creating, and I am not sure I will give up the challenge.
