Red Beans and Rice
If you have time, make your brown rice from scratch. Use chicken broth instead of water to amp up the flavor. It will take about 45 minutes. In a pinch, instant brown rice is OK.
Broiled Lemon Tofu
Marinate the tofu for 3 to 12 hours, then broil 3 minutes on each side until browned.
Green Beans Amandine
To make this recipe quick and easy, buy fresh or frozen packages of green beans designed for microwaving.
Mole Sauce
Give grilled chicken or leftover turkey a south-of-the-border flavor with this chocolate-infused sauce.
