3 Cloves garlic — crushed
Tabasco and/or mustard — to
Taste

Mix and simmer. Add a dash of Tabasco and/or mustard for

This used to be a secret but since I’m retired it makes
no-never-mind. I makes more money now after I retired. If I knew
I could make this much money as a retiree, I would have quit
working when I was 20.” (By “retired” Euel means he now runs a
private catering company and cooks only for those who wisely
seek out his skills.)

Yellow Rice and Beans

3 cups long grain white rice
4 cups water
1 packet Spanish seasoning (Like Goya seasoning with saffron)
1 onion, chopped
1/2 cup chopped green pepper
1/2 cup chopped red pepper
1 cup cooked beans (I LOVE black beans)
chopped green onion
about 1/2 cup frozen peas
about 1/4 cup finely shredded raw carrot

Mix together rice, water, seasoning, onion, peppers and beans. Put in a
rice cooker, cover and turn to cook. OR … Put in a covered saucepan,
bring to boil, turn to warm and let set 20 minutes or until rice is
cooked. Fluff with fork.

Add green onion, peas and carrot. Mix gently. This is a really colorful
dish, and reminiscent of many of the rice and beans recipes I cook.
