I loved this! It made a fabulous dinner salad. The recipe is adapted slightly from Cate's World Kitchen Blog.
In the rice cooker:
2 cups brown rice
3 1/2 cups water
1 tsp turmeric
Layered in a bowl:
6-8 cups washed, roughly chopped spinach
1 cup thinly sliced cabbage
3 carrots, shredded
3 tomatoes, seeded and diced
2 chicken breasts, cooked and diced:
For the dressing:
1/3 cup peanut butter
2 tbsp rice vinegar
2 tbsp soy sauce
1 1/2 tbsp sugar
1 clove garlic, chopped
1 1/2 tsp grated ginger
1/3 cup warm water
Fried to go on top:
2 tbsp oil
1 shallot, thinly sliced and separated into rings
You have stumbled upon the repository for all of the recipes that I've made (at least) once and think I'd like to make again someday.

Veggie Pizza
This is what I did:
(1) Made pizza crust (whole wheat) in the bread machine and then grilled it on the indoor grill.
(2) Spread it with flavored cream cheese.
(3) Topped it with finely-diced mixed frozen vegetables and a sprinkle of feta cheese.
Yum!

Mexican Lasagna
This is really good.
1. Make one pound of rotini. (I used whole wheat.)
2. Add one can of chili, one can of Mexican tomatoes, and one cup of corn to the pan.
3. Top with a little shredded cheddar cheese.

No-bake Cookies
I liked these. If you have never had no-bake cookies before, you should know that they taste more like fudge than like cookies. But that's not necessarily a bad thing.
