My husband often presents me with the never ending challenge at meal times. I plan a week in advance, decide what meals we are going to have and buy all the shopping at once, great thinking I hear you say? Err no, because when you are married to one of the fussiest eaters on the planet who would rather feed his "corn thin" addiction than worry about his next meal, I have a problem. To be fair most nights he is happy with my choice of meal, but occasionally my choice is not the right one for him and I have to get creative to stop him reaching for his next bag of midget gems. Tonight was one of those nights, his request......."I want veg and rice". Odd choice, but I can work with that. Here is what I came up with

Short grain brown rice cooked in Vecon stock in the rice cooker, then topped off with Furikake. Served with steamed carrots, cauliflower and broccoli and topped with my tomato concoction (quorn, mushrooms, onions cooked in organic basil passata seasoned with salt, pepper and mixed herbs).
Still nice and healthy using stuff from the fridge so I was happy and considering hubby downed two plate fulls at the same rate as I downed one, I can only assume he was happy too!!!
For my vegan friends, if you use tofu instead of quorn its vegan and gluten free too.
