Recipe - Lunch Suggestions

1 Cooked rice
1 Curry powder
1 Frozen spinach
1 cn Garbanzos
1 Raisins

Valerie's lunch: Fill a Tupperware container halfway with cooked rice, and
use frozen peas (straight out of the bag) to fill it the rest of the way.
Sprinkle curry powder on top (I use about a Tablespoon. YMMV). Take to
work, and nuke it at lunch.

My adaptation: Add some frozen spinach (see *below), some canned garbanzos,
and some raisins (especially golden raisins).

I started adding those other veggies, because my sister told me that green
peas don't contain many nutrients. They also really add to the taste,
especially the garbanzo beans.

*Regarding frozen spinach: You may have already known this, but I only
recently discovered that you can buy frozen spinach in bags ("Family Size")
instead of in those famous blocks. The spinach is still all frozen in
clumps, but the clumps are a manageable size, so that I can add just a
little to my various dishes. I now use much more spinach than I did before
because it is so convenient.
