Wow! Every once in a while, I even surprise myself! This was one of my most delicious recipes yet and and was so simple! To make it exactly as I did (recommended), you will need to shop Trader Joe's. I'm sure you could substitute some of the ingredients...but I wouldn't!
2 cups organic vegetable broth
1 cup basmati rice medley
1 can white kidney beans
2 tbsp Earth Balance
Trader Joe's 21 Season Salute
2 pita pockets
spicy hummus
1: Traditionally, when rice is cooked over stovetop, you would use the 2:1 ratio; 2 cups water, 1 cup rice. Instead of the water, I chose to use vegetable broth. So add 2 cups vegetable broth and 1 cup basmati rice medley. Also add 2 tbsp Earth Balance and 2 teaspoons of the 21 Season Salute seasoning.
2: Bring to a boil, then immediately turn to low setting, cover and put a timer on for 20 minutes. After 20 minutes if the wild rice portion of this medley is still too hard for your taste, cook for an additional 5 minutes.
3: Add kidney beans and gently stir into the rice medley being careful not to mash the beans.
4: Serve with a side of pita triangles and spicy hummus for a deliciously simple and filling dish! Yum!
