came up with this myself

made in the crock pot...

2 cans of ff, low sodium broth
1 bag froz. mixed veggies
1 can black beans
1 cup brown rice
( i used blk. pepper & onion powder , you can spice it up any way you want)
let this simmer in crock until rice is tender.

I found this to be very filling as well as delicious !!

Great ideas, both of you Fat Smashers!

Have you noticed how SWEET (and wonderful) frozen corn tastes in a rice or egg dish now that we aren't deadening our taste buds with sugar overload?

That sound wonderful. How would you count it?

??? Not following you. On FS, you don't have to ..you can have corn..just not potatoes and avacadoes.

love to put it in my veggie chili too with diced green peppers & mushrooms!

I'm new here, and don't want to sound dumb...

1st ingredient is 2 cans of FF, low sodium...what is FF? racking my brain here and can't figure it out...

thanks
