Gettin’ comfy with carbs

Do you ever have an intense craving for carbs after an exhausting day of work? This recipe might be for you.

Itโ€™s pretty simple and you can throw whatever veggies you want in it. I was craving black beans so I chucked a whole can into a pound of ground beef on a wok (love the wok) with some sweet onions and garlic.

In a separate pan, I went with boxed rice like Zataranโ€™s black bean rice, dunked it in some water and a dab of butter, let it boil, and simmer for 25 minutes and my meal was basically complete.

That was last nightโ€™s dinner. As a left over for lunch, I sprinkled in some salt & vinegar chips and a bunch of organically grown cilantro (so fresh!) that I received from Door-to-Door Organics here in Michigan. (Iโ€™ve never tried a Community Supported Agriculture in Iowa, so I donโ€™t have any recommendations to provide there. If you do, please share!)
