-------- ------------ --------------------------------

1 tablespoon vegetable oil

1/2 cup chopped onions

1/2 cup chopped green bell peppers

1 1/4 cups water

1/2 cup converted white rice

1 cup corn kernels

(fresh or canned drained or frozen)

1 cup kidney beans

(cooked from dry; or canned drained)

1/3 cup barbecue sauce

 

Vegan. Low fat

 

Makes: 3 1/2 cups; serves: 4 to 6

 

The sauce makes this dish a little moister than standard rice dishes.

 

1. In a 2-quart saucepan, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the

onions and bell peppers; cook, stirring, until softened, about 3 minutes.

 

2. Stir in the water; bring to a boil. Stir in the rice; return to a

boil. Reduce heat and simmer, covered, 20 minutes.

 

3. Stir in the corn, beans, and barbecue sauce. Simmer, covered, 10

minutes longer.

 

Variation: Use spicy barbecue sauce or smoky barbecue sauce to add

different flavors.
