Last time I talked about the health advantages of beans. This week I’d like to talk about rice. Rice is a very simple carbohydrate. Because it is so simple it digests quickly. This is why you often feel hungry again shortly after eating rice. However, if you pair your rice with more filling complex carbohydrates and proteins, you will be able to take advantage of the low calorie nature as well as feel fuller longer.
There are many different types of rice that you can cook with. Most Americans are familiar with the standard long and short grain white rice. Other types of rice include wild rice, sticky rice, Jasmine rice and Calrose rice. Each type of rice has a specific level of starch and a unique flavor. Experimenting with various types of rice can be a great way to add variety to your dinner table.
Multi-color Stuffed Peppers
Ingredients
You can also use different types of peppers like Anaheim, Pasillo and Bell.)
Directions
Spray a frying pan with cooking spray and then crumble your turkey sausage into the pan. Brown the sausage, drain off excess fat.
Add in chopped onion and cook until onions are translucent. Add rice and tomatoes and cook until warmed through. Add pepper, salt and cilantro to taste.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Line a baking pan with aluminum foil.
Cut the top off of your peppers and clean out the seeds inside the pepper. Set the peppers in the baking pan.
Stuff each pepper with the rice mixture.
Cook for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the peppers have cooked through and the flesh softens.
While this is not a parve Jewish recipe, it is relatively low fat. Turn this recipe into a Jewish beef recipe by replacing the turkey sausage with ground beef.
Wow, the cooking way of this Jewish Rice recipe is great, I’ll try it later. just one question: how can I add your blog into my rss reader, thanks so much.
