Ingredients (use vegan versions):
- 1/3 - 1/2 cup chopped onion
- 1/2 cup sliced mushrooms
- 1 thinly sliced broccoli stalk
- 3/4 - 1 cup chopped eggplant
- 1/3 to 1/2 cup canned lentils
- 1/3 cup rice
- 1/2 - 3/4 cup salsa
- allspice
- garlic powder
- paprika
Directions:
This recipe is extremely low
maintenance and easy. I'm a university
student, and this can be made 20
minutes before heading out the door!
Cook the rice as directed. Set aside.
Spray a frying pan with cooking
spray, then sauté the onion and
mushrooms with some garlic powder till
onions are cooked.
Spray the mix with the cooking spray
again and add in the broccoli and
eggplant. Sprinkle with allspice,
paprika and more garlic! Cook for
about 5-7 minutes or until eggplant is
cooked.
Add 1/3 cup of water to the mix, and
then the lentils. Cook about 5 minutes
(until the water is absorbed).
Add in the salsa and the rice. Cook
until the liquid is almost all absorbed.

as well as varied amounts of each
