Leftovers are a big part of my week. I often make a bigger dinner just so I’ll have enough to package up and have for lunch the next day. But sometimes, things don’t go as planned. If my guys are really hungry, that extra food gets gobbled up and there’s nothing to save.

It’s all good…I always make sure to have options handy just in case. I keep plenty of Minute Ready to Serve Rice on hand for the days when I need lunch in a pinch. One cup of that tasty rice can become any of a dozen or more delicious meal in a flash.

Often I’ll just toss a cup of the rice with some protein and veggies that I have in my fridge/freezer. One day I found some of my leftover peanut sauce and decided to whip up the dish you see above. My Thai Peanut Tofu Rice Bowl With Veggies is one of the easiest meals ever…so easy in fact, sometimes I skip the leftovers and make it instead.

The quick convenience of Minute Ready to Serve makes this the perfect lunch that’s ready in just minutes. The sauce is ready in about a minute, the rice takes one minute and a quick stir fry of the veggies takes maybe three minutes. Heck, that’s less time than is needed to heat many frozen dinners.

Minute Ready to Serve Rice is perfect for a variety of recipes like this one and can be a quick and tasty meal that you can enjoy right from the cup! And you know Publix carries a huge selection of Minute Ready to Serve Rice so you can enjoy great tasty and convenience any time!
