What I'm Eating: creamy rice and beans

Facebook is down and I don't do twitter anymore... so i guess i'll blog!

Here's what I ate for lunch today:
homemade refried black beans
long grain brown rice
creamy cashew sauce

mixed it all together and nom nom nommed!

Details:
I had made the refried beans a few days prior. It's still a work in progress to refine exactly how to do that... but they were edible enough.

Rice I cooked in the rice cooker. Yes!

Creamy cashew sauce I got off of Ellen DeGeneres's website. It's super easy, especially if you have a really good mixer like the Vita-Mix. I was able to just add cashews and water and blend for a creamy sauce that reminded me of Monterey sauce. I ended up sprinkling on some salt and nutritional yeast on it and it was very good. I'll definitely use the simple cashew sauce as a base for future sauces.

  1. Rice and beans is one of my absolute favorite things to eat. It's lovely that it happens to be cheap as well :)
