Here's a creation of my own that is yummy:

 

Carmelize garlic,

add olive oil

add stuffed green olives and kalamata olives (sliced)

sliced red peppers

pesto sauce

thick sliced small tomatoes

1/4 cup red wine

salt to taste

 

serve over linguine with fresh grated asiago

anyone have suggestions with ingredients that

a.) do not spoil if you don't use it all (like vegetables)

b.) can be frozen without ruining them (like vegetables)

c.) don't involve spices of any sort way shape or form besides salt, pepper, and or hot sauce.

 

Rat privately told me that lasagne is a good idea. right-ho. make a shitload and freeze the rest.

 

No good burritto suggestions? You can make and freeze them.

Pasta sux, i get hungry within an hour of eating.

 

Frozen lasagne is great. I've taken it with me in a ziplock on overnight trips. It thaws by the time dinner is ready (depending on temps outside), and then I reheat in boiling water.

 

Burritos/wraps are good, though I usually have issues with overstuffing them. Many things that you could serve on rice you can also wrap into a burrito.

 

I have to question your assertion about vegetables. Most vegetables will keep for a week in the fridge. Some will keep longer. Vegetables tend to make me feel fuller longer.

Many of my dishes are some mix of vegetables, some protein, spices to give it some character, and then a base (rice, pasta, potatoes, etc.). My veggies are usually some combination of onions, carrots, cabbage, celery, zucchini, eggplant, mushrooms, and peppers.

 

I don't understand your thing against spices. For example, take some ground beef and rice.

Add chili powder, corn, and cheese for a TexMex thing.

Add garlic, ginger, soy sauce for an Asian thing.

(fresh ginger works better)

Those little extra ingredients make a huge difference. Add cinnamon, cumin, and raisins for a North African flavor. Add almonds and dried cranberries for a Persian flavor.

Cook the rice with a broth or boullion. Cook the rice with a finely chopped jalepeno.

Starbucks Chonga Bagel and cream cheese .87 cents with my pardner discount and a 16oz soy hot cocoa ( with whip and java chip chunks, free, on duty).

 

The beans and rice is much better.

 

1/2 cup raw rice: 400 Cal, $0.10 (50 lbs jasmine rice for $20)

one can TJs Cuban Style Black Beans: $1.29

360 Cal, respectable amounts of fiber, calcium, iron

way more flava than a stale bagel
