Rice is Cheap
Posted: August 7, 2010 Filed under: Uncategorized 16 Comments »Whew, it’s been a long few days. The beginning of the school year is always a bit hectic, but I can say that I am excited about the kiddos’ first day of school on Monday! I just have to do a few more hours of planning/prep tomorrow and we’ll be all set. It’s hard to believe another school year is on the horizon.
And I still haven’t been grocery shopping which means I’ve been eating a lot of rice. A lot. Here is one of my favorite creations…
Sauteed cabbage (from my bro’s garden!), frozen carrots, brown rice, sunflower seeds, and teriyaki soy vay
‘Twas delicious. And I bet you a million dollars I’ll eat it again this week. I have a whole head of cabbage, a bag of frozen carrots, and about 2 cups or rice left. When those things are gone, a grocery trip will be unavoidable.
Alrighty, I’m off to sit on the couch and relaaaax. I hope you all are having great weekends, talk to you type at you tomorrow!
That looks really good! I’ve been thinking of making a ton of brown rice and reheating it through the week, since we have so much. And you’re right: It’s cheap!
mmm love cabbage!!! thank you for reminding me it’s out there just waiting for me to dig in!!
It is hard to believe that the summer is coming to a close and kids are headed back to school. Where in the world did the summer go!?!?
I love how easy/delish stir fries are! I might make one tonight actually
I love cabbage! That looks delicious!
Oh i love how simple life is with rice around
I love brown rice for its simplicity and convenience. It works so well with all kinds of dishes. I practically lived off of it last semester in college.
I can’t believe school is already starting up for you! Summer flew right by, but it’s always fun starting a whole new year. And I’ll bet the first day with the kids is fun.
I just made a ton of brown rice for several meals
. First one was rice and pb 
. The next will be in my homemade eggplant “burger” with carmelized onions, next beans and rice, and then who knows?! 
I LOVE the versatility,cheapness,and gluten free-ness of rice 
Looks like a yummy bowl! It’s been ages since I had cabbage, but this is making me crave it! Hope your first day of school goes well tomorrow.
Your rice bowl looks awesome! I love bowls like that! So good!
I can’t believe school is right around the corner! It’s craziness!
