The Fridge Dish

The Fridge Dish

Every once in awhile, usually towards the end of the week, I make a fridge dish, which is basically anything I can find in the fridge that will go together. 

Today I had leftover cooked brown rice from yesterday's vegetarian "meatballs", some veggies, eggs (we always have tons of eggs!) and luckily my husband bought a poblano pepper this week so that added some extra flavor! I found a can of black beans in the pantry which will make a complete protein along with the rice so I was set!

This dish turned out very tasty, only took about 20 minutes to make and is super filling. 

The Fridge Dish

2 servings

Ingredients:

1 cup cooked brown rice

1 cup black beans 

1/2 small red onion chopped

1/2 red bell pepper chopped

1/2 cup mushrooms chopped

1/2 poblano pepper, seeded and chopped

2 eggs

1 teaspoon oil (I used grapeseed)

Cumin

Chili powder

Garlic powder

Salt

Directions:

Sauté all veggies in frying pan on medium heat for five minutes. Add salt and garlic powder to taste. 

Push veggies to the sides of the pan. 

Turn heat up to medium high 

Pour oil into the middle of the pan. 

Add eggs into the oil and start to scramble. As the egg starts to cook, incorporate the veggies into the middle. 

Once your egg is cooked, add rice to the pan. 

Cook for about two minutes

Add black beans to the pan and then turn off the heat. 

Mix everything together and add chili powder and cumin to taste. 

Enjoy!
