Lemon-Pepper Green Beans and Rice

"I usually eat vegetarian meals for lunch, and in an attempt to try something new I made this up last night. Even more delicious than I had expected! Measurements will be mostly estimated, as I just threw together the amount that looked right for me."

directions

  • Make the rice according to the directions on the package, and add the bouillon cube to the water the rice is cooking inches.
  • Saute onion and garlic in olive oil until garlic is slightly browned.
  • Add the red pepper and cook for a minute or two.
  • Add the green beans and tomatoes.
  • Add as much lemon pepper and Mrs. Dash as suits you, as well as the lemon juice. By only adding a little bit of lemon juice you enhance the lemony flavor without overpowering everything else.
  • Put the vegetable mixture over the cooked rice, sprinkle a little cheese on top if you like, and enjoy!

  1. A wonderful 2 in 1 side dish. We really enjoyed it. Thank you.
     
  2. This was an easy-to-prepare recipe, & I particularly liked that it used lemon pepper (something I use a lot!), & I found that & the Mrs Dash to be a great combination! I also included a 2nd clove of garlic! Thanks for sharing a very nice recipe! [Tagged, made & reviewed for one of my adoptees in the current Pick A Chef]
