Ok so tonight I had a brown rice and bean burrito. Pretty simple to make and pretty filling. Great healthy substitute to beef and bean.
All I did was made some organic brown rice, warmed up some re-fried beans, chopped some lettuce, had some salsa already, grated some cheese and chopped some jalapenos. Next just warmed up a tortilla and put all those ingredients in, wrapped it up and ate. Sorry no picture tonight but it was pretty damn good. You should give it a try for a quick dinner and a filling one. I had two and that was good enough.
Just a dinner I wanted to share with you all tonight. Oh and my son loves it as well..Simple, easy and cheap.

Brown rice stir fry
Awesome tasting healthy dinner for you to try. It will give you great energy and protein for those of you who need it. Great after workouts. Its great for getting the "full satisfied" feeling after you eat instead of leaving you thinking what can I have next.
So tonight for dinner I made basically a stir fry again. Simple ingredients. I had some left over veg in the fridge that I used.
Ingredients
1 Sweet Red Pepper (Chopped)
3 Spring Onions (Chopped)
1 Carrot (Chopped)
2 Chicken Breast
1-2 Cups of Organic Brown Rice
Tamari Sauce
First I diced a sweet pepper, spring onion and a carrot. Then I again filleted a chicken breast which I then cut into small cubes. Once done with that I put a cup of organic brown rice in a pain (First rinse). Put water about an inch above the rice. Bring that to a boil and let simmer for 20 mins. When there is about 5-10 mins left on the rice put about a tbs of oil in a wok/deep frying pan on high heat. Then add the chicken, cook for about 2-3 mins then add the veg, again 2-3 mins. I then added some Tamari sauce instead of Soy sauce. I like the flavor of Tamari better. By the time this is all cooked your rice will be done. Drain the rice. What I did at this point is throw the rice in with the mix, add a bit more Tamari and done.
Again Simple dinner takes about 30 mins to make.
End Result Serves 4-6
