A Cup of Rice

MsCzar · January 2021

Tonight, I made stir-fry pork and veg over white long grain rice. Tomorrow? My usual next-day go-to is fried curried rice with egg - but maybe it's time for new ideas - including breakfast!

What are your fave healthy recipes using leftover rice?

I dont eat much rice and when I do make it and have leftovers, the chickens get it LOL

you can add cooked rice to a million things. soups, stuffed peppers, turn it into a fried rice. my ex was Japanese and ate taco meat over rice. weirdo. LOL

Veggies , beans, lentils, cheese...
One of my "wierd " things is I've added pasta sauce to it

Good suggestions! Alas, once again, it ended up becoming curried egg fried rice with peas. Delicious!

Does anyone here portion and freeze their rice? I don't make white rice all that often, but since I only eat a half cup in a day, there is ALWAYS leftover rice. So it's either have it three days in a row or...???

I do now that I have bought a Big rice cooker. ( my small one will now be the bean cooker) The last batch I made was this multigrain variety that you dont need a big serving of. I made way too much so I did freeze some so it wouldnt go bad. I like rice alot so I can eat it several days in a row without getting sick of it.

I like my rice with beans. Either pinto or kidney beans.

There is no such thing as leftover rice with me....It's always disappearing with Indian food!

I make a cup of Basmati every week now. It all leftover for me. Sometimes I'll just heat it up and put a can of Polar Salmon and soy sauce with it.

Polar Salmon is marvelous: I buy a 12 pack.

When I make meatballs, the first night I have them with spaghetti, and the next time I add chipotle powder and have them with rice and beans.

A Mexican friend told me about "chili beans." At first I thought, "What's the point? I can just add the spices myself." But they are super convenient. And interestingly, they last a lot longer in the frig than plain beans.
