Kind Rice and Beans



I improvised this dish from a recipe on The Kind Life website.  Of course, we had a few different ingredients, but the end product was nice.

Cook 1 cup red or wild rice.

Combine in a large saucepan:

1 tablespoon olive oil
cooked rice
1/2 cup raisins
1/2 cup toasted almonds*
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon parsley
1/2 teaspoon basil
1 can (or cup) of beans (soy here)

*Toast 1/2 cup raw almonds by either broiling them in oven (5 minutes) or toasting in the toaster oven (8 to 10 minutes).
