Try replacing some of that with seasoned brown rice and beans. It will be cheaper, healthier and (depending on what spices you use) tastier.

- splat 17y agoThat's a good idea, I'll try that. Thanks!
- dbr 17y agoMy favorite thing to add to rice is curry powder. Gives the rice a completely new flavor. If you have peanuts add those, too.
- pbhj 17y agoBrown rice gives me severe abdominal cramps - YMMV. Rice is good for bulk and brown rice gives more fibre but whilst it's a staple for many it's not great nutritionally.
- Shooter 17y agoMost people undercook brown rice. My wife hated it and had stomach cramps whenever she ate it, until she started cooking it for 50 minutes or so. Using our rice cooker never cooked it thoroughly, so we use the stovetop now. Now she likes it. I agree it's not as nutritious as most people think it is...we eat quinoa more frequently, and we try to alternate with other grains and sides.
