Mushrooms with a soy sauce glaze

Nicely enjoyed on steak

Ingredients:

2 tablespoons butter

1 (8 ounce) package sliced white mushrooms
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 teaspoons soy sauce
ground black pepper to taste

Directions:

Melt the butter in skillet over medium heat; add the mushrooms; cook and stir until the mushrooms have softened and released their liquid, about 5 minutes. Stir in the garlic; continue to cook and stir for 1 minute. Pour in the soy sauce; cook the mushrooms in the soy sauce until the liquid has evaporated, about 4 minutes.

Lentils & Rice

Lentils are so yummy and full of fiber too!

This makes a good side dish for any meal.

~

1/2 cup lentils

1/2 cup white long grain rice

2 1/3 cups water

2 Chicken Bullion Cubes

1 heaping tsp chopped garlic

I combine all ingredients in my rice cooker. Or you can just cook them over the stove top, by bringing them to a boil and then simmer with the lid on for about 20 minutes or until liquid is absorbed.

Very simple but my husband and kids love it!

If you want to cook the lentils with brown rice, then add them in after the rice is half way cooked. Brown rice takes longer to cook and you don't want mushy lentils.
