Re: easy and healthy meals

Most of there meals I eat consist of a bunch of veggies (and some fruit) mixed together. Tonight I ate sautéed frozen vegetables (rices cauliflower, peas, corn) with black beans and salsa. I also like to chop up a much of different fresh vegetables (sweet potato, green beans, mushrooms, bell peppers, onions) and roast them with olive oil. Meatless chili is also always an easy go-to option.

Some of that looks useful, some looks disgusting, and I'm puzzled by the rice cooking directions and rice nutrition info. I never do any of the rinsing or sauteeing rice in oil stuff.

I grew up eating brown rice, which with some kind of legume makes for complete protein, but white rice won't. Yes, white rice in the US is usually fortified. Rinsing it first = there go the added vitamins. So, my rice cooking directions.

Put 1 cup brown rice to 2 1/2 - 3 cups wafer in a pan with a lid. Bring to a boil, then turn the heat to pretty low, stick a lid on the pan, and chop some veggies or watch tv or something for 20 minutes. Check the water level in the pan. Is there only a little bit of water left over the rice, or has the water level dropped below the rice? Put the lid back on the pan for a minute and then turn the heat off and go do something else for 10 minutes so the water can finish absorbing.

Or do what I do and make rice before you go to bed, turn the heat off when it's almost done, and reheat it in the morning. I ate brown rice with butter for breakfast a lot growing up. I suppose you could add brown sugar and cinnamon or maple syrup too.

Ooh, also, Hippie Brownie recipe (that involves neither chocolate dessert nor cannabis):

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. If you have leftovef brown rice, use it, otherwise make some while you:

Either buy or make tamari sunflower seeds. To make them, toast shelled raw sunflower seeds in a dry pan, stirring until they start to make popping noises. Add tamari or soy sauce, be prepared for hot steam, and keep stirring for a minute until the seeds look dry and are coated in soy sauce. Turn the heat off and dump in a bowl or on a plate to cool off.

Grate some cheese. I use sharp white cheddar.

Steam or saute some veggies, maybe add some minced garlic. Good veggies to use: broccoli, bell peppers, red onion, sugar snap peas, carrots, cut up green beans, halved cherry tomatoes...

Get some ovenproof dishes. Put brown rice, then veggies, then cheese, then sunflower seeds, on plates or in bowls, and stick in the oven just long enough for cheese to melt. Voila. Tasty healthy old school hippie food that can be made more unhealthy by increasing the cheese. I suppose you could even make a divot in the rice and veggies and crack an egg into it before putting it in thr oven, although I never do.

Broccoli soup made with lots of broccoli and a flavor base of onion, garlic, celery, green pepper, and carrots, with spinach added at the end for color and nutrients, blended, then topped with cheese.

Mixed veggie and bean soup. I can vary the seasoning and veggies.

Yeah prepping the veggies takes some time, but then I can just portion it out, freeze or refrigerate it, and have it later.

If I really need vegetables and feeling lazy/depressed, I'll just microwave frozen peas and top them with butter. If I have a tiny bit more energy, I'll microwave shelled frozen edamame in salted water, drain them, and mince a garlic clove into the bowl, juice (and maybe zest) half a lemon in, add some extra virgin olive oil, and eat them.

Fruit and yogurt drizzled with honey makes a decent no cook breakfast.

I guess the big question is, how do you define healthy meals? Because there's like a zillion different ways. Low fat, full fat, low carb, high carb, protein, superfoods, paleo. I saw a recipe for healthy pumpkin pie that said to break the extra crust off the top of a store bought crust.
