Brown Rice And Broccoli Quesadilla

Brown Rice Quesadilla – Clean & Delicious®

Here it is. The third and final recipe from the ‘Brown Rice Recipes In Under 5 Minutes’ video.

This is literally a dinner you can make in 5-minutes provided you’ve got some cooked brown rice and left over veggies in the fridge.

And remember, you can make a big batch of brown rice on the weekend, leave a container in the fridge for the week, and then freeze some for the weeks to come. This way you cook once and eat many, many times!

Another option is frozen brown rice from the grocery store. I have tried pre-frozen brown rice from both Trader Joe’s and Whole Foods and both taste great and provide a quick solution when you don’t have anything pre-prepped in the fridge.
