Pantry Stealing

 Due to economic issues that I just have to deal with, I have resorted to making and prepping meals now. 

Rice and Beans always sounds like a good meal but, have you made it 

I thought I could do it. I was making some rice and roni meals but, not Rice and Beans. 

The red beans and white rice seemed simple enough except I didn't soak the beans beforehand and the rice was taking longer. The dish was incredibly bland. Salt and Pepper were not going to save it. It needed mass amount of sodium and msg or flavor. Hence I added a packet of Lipton Chicken Noodle Soup mix with water to continue cooking the rice and beans. 

I was able to make three meals out of it. I need to work on portioning my meals because having a 2 quarts of rice and beans sounds good but, you lose your taste buds after a while
