 All Veggie Beans and Rice

This authentic recipe came from our Brazilian foreign exchange student.  Unadulterated by myself,

you will get a little taste of a Brazilian staple food.  These people know how to eat

healthy - just check out their people. 

 

INGREDIENTS:

 

(2) White Onions, (5) cans of white kidney beans or navy beans OR beans that were soaked overnight, (3) cans of diced tomatoes OR (4)  fresh diced tomatoes,  (4) peppers - any color,  jasmine or basmati rice,  salt,  (1/4 cup) butter.

1) Dice onions.

2)  Sautee onions for 5-10 minutes with 1/4 cup butter in large saucepan  (very emotional for me...I cried a lot)
3)  Dice peppers (and tomatoes if using fresh).
4)  Combine the diced peppers, beans and diced tomatoes to the onions.

5)  Add enough water to render soup-like.  (you will want lots of extra juice)

6)  Salt to taste.

7)  Bring to a boil then simmer for 1 hour.

8)  Cook a large pot of rice (jasmine or basmati) 1/2 hour before done simmering.

 9)  Serve the vegetables and beans on the rice.   YEAHHH!!!   Mega protein and carbs with a load of vitamins.  Piece of cake...and mmmm!  Your kitchen will smell soooo good making this recipe.
