Lately, I've been going out to eat a lot and relying on typical standby foods at mealtimes out of laziness (sandwiches, basic pasta, etc.) so today I wanted to make something worth taking a picture of!
It was all done to taste, like so:
- Sautee broccoli and tempeh (cut into strips about 1/2 to 1/4 inch thick) in a mixture of soy sauce and olive oil (I just guessed at the proper amount), along with garlic &/or onion powder, salt, pepper, and cumin.
- Cook rice according to package instructions. I added one vegetable bullion cube and a pinch of salt to the water I boiled mine in.
- Melt cheddar onto tortilla, then add cooked ingredients and top with salsa. I certainly would've added sour cream as well if I'd had any at the time.
It was very simple and very delicious!

I've been under the weather this week and haven't had a lot of time to go out grocery shopping, so I made due with what I had: cheddar cheese, onion, garlic, rice, baby bella mushrooms, zephyr squash, and broccoli. I still have that lovely woozy-head feeling from my cold, so don't even ask me proportions for this! But essentially all I did was chop the veggies and saute them in butter with the garlic and onion while the rice cooked. I used a vegetable bullion cube in the water the rice cooked in, as well as some salt for flavor. Once it was all done I put the rice in a bowl and stirred in the shredded cheddar, then added the veggies. Easy enough, yeah? Not exactly a fancy risotto, but if you're lacking time or energy (or ingredients) then it certainly does the job. I like making easy dishes like this because proportions don't really matter–you can basically add whatever tastes right. Hooray for easy!
