Beans-grains/3 recipes

I use crushed Ritz crackers instead of bread crumbs and add 2/3 cup of shredded sharp Cheddar. A simple gravy to go along with the meatloaf can also be made using another packet of soup mix, 2 Tbs. flour and 2 cups of cold water. Simmer until thickened.

This colorful yet flavorful salad is made with assorted vegetables and cooked rice, tossed with a light and tasty soy-maple dressing. It's a refreshing summer salad that can be served with any BBQ. Make it a day ahead, put in the frige, it tastes even better next day.

A hearty vegetarian version of my favorite soup. It's easy to make it vegetarian by using roasted vegetable stock instead of beef stock. By adding a leftover parmesan rind (I save them in the freezer for this soup) it adds extra flavor. (optional)

Lots of flavor, and the recipe is easy to follow. My family loves this dish. Will be making it again for sure.
