To shorten preparation time, cook large separate batches of brown and white rice. Package them for freezing in 2-cup packages; 1 cup brown and 1 cup white. When you're ready to prepare a recipe just defrost and it's ready to use. Thaw rice and heat in microwave or oven until ready to use. Saute onions and garlic in pan sprayed with nonfat cooking spray. Add tomatoes, zucchini and seasonings. Cover and simmer until vegetables are tender. Add the beans and heat thoroughly. Season to taste and spoon onto the hot rice.

A Message from our Provider:
“Let Him therefore send and do what He will. By His grace, if we are His, we will face it, bow to it, accept it, and give thanks for it. God’s Providence is always executed in the ‘wisest manner’ possible. We are often unable to see and understand the reasons and causes for specific events in our lives, in the lives of others, or in the history of the world. But our lack of understanding does not prevent us from believing God. #Don Fortner”
