Yes! You heard correctly!!! Don't go, bare with me first, you may like the idea. Yes, there are other veggies in there (& I'll give you the entire breakdown down below).
I had been craving beets for a while (NO!) & finally bought some fresh ones. Yes, they do turn your hands a nice shade of red, but it'll go away eventually.
This recipe makes approx 6 cups & the recipe was analyzed over at Calorie Count based off of one cup.
Ingredients
2 cups cooked brown rice
1/2 cup lentils
1 beet
1 yellow squash
1/2 cup green beans
1/2 cup carrots
1/4 cup ground flax seed
1 medium sweet potato
1 cup Purple Potatoes
Cook rice separately according to the directions.
While that's going, on a large skillet, you're going to sautee everything else (except for the ground flax seed). Feel free to add a bit of olive oil or just use the spray.
Once the rice is ready, the veggies should be ready too. Mix the rice in with the veggies, then add the ground flax seed & let simmer for a few minutes.
Sooooo easy!!!
